BYU LANGUAGE COMP.

Tyson’s Elementary has competed in a language competition at BYU for the past 4 years.  The students usually volunteer to be a part of it.  Tyson hasn’t had any desire to do it.  This year his teachers and I, told him it would be a good challenge and opportunity for him to participate in.  He took part in a section called impromptu conversations.  He and a partner were given a topic to discuss at random, out of a list of around 20 they had practiced.  Then they were to carry on a conversation in Spanish about the topic.  They did a great job!  They are awarded certificated and achievements individually on how they did, the school as a whole then places in the competition.  They took 2nd place in their elementary division, out of 5 schools.

Grammy and Gramps came to support Tyson.  It always means a lot!
