The Little Cinema at the Berkshire Museum is showing a feature film, “La Camioneta,” Friday, September 13th until September 16th, at 7pm. There is a 2pm showing on Monday, September 16th. “La Camioneta” is a New York Times “critics’ pic,” a worthwhile film to see!
Read the New York Times review at this link: http://movies.nytimes.com/2013/05/31/movies/la-camioneta-the-journey-of-one-american-school-bus.html?_r=0
Every day dozens of decommissioned school buses leave the United States on a southward migration that carries them to Guatemala, where they are repaired, repainted, and resurrected as the brightly colored camionetas that bring the vast majority of Guatemalans to work each day. La Camioneta follows one such bus on its transformative journey: a journey between North and South, between life and death, and through an unfolding collection of moments, people, and places that serve to quietly remind us of the interconnected worlds in which we live.

Welcome to BCC’s Spanish “Wikiblog” !
Why do we call this a “Wikiblog” ? Usually, a blog has a single author and a wiki has many. We are hoping you will contribute, either by posting comments (in English or Spanish!) or by creating PowerPoint learning presentations on Spanish vocabulary, grammar or culture that you are learning. Many students have already participated by posting audio or video to Voicethreads for their classes.
In the meantime, feel free to explore the rich variety of pages and posts. Let us know what you think! We are eager to receive your input on how to improve this Wikiblog.
For BCC Spanish students: Look for your course page to find syllabi for your courses under the menu for Clases de español, at the top of any of the pages on this wikiblog. From there, you will be able to link to the online resources that give you access to homework assignments, learning tools, tutorials, audio and video materials that correspond to your textbooks.
Check out the Spanish Language Toybox, (on the sidebar, under Categories) a language learning archive filled with PowerPoint presentations on vocabulary, grammar and culture and learning games that will stimulate your curiosity help you study!
To see the progress students have made in Spanish over a semester, a year or more, visit the Voicethread pages for last year’s Spanish classes. There, you can view the audio and video posts students create in Spanish. Youwill have the opportunity to create and post materials of your own to help you and present and future Spanish students communicate more effectively (and more fluently) in Spanish… 🙂
~ NOTE ~ BCC is GREENING !!
For this reason, we request that you NOT PRINT OUT syllabi and other materials you find on this site while you are ON CAMPUS !!
