Salsa Dancing at Washougal High School
On Monday, May 5, Washougal High School Spanish classes were treated to a hands-on lesson in Latino culture to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. WHS Spanish teachers Rochelle Aiton and Brian Eggleston helped students to learn and perform salsa dancing set to its unique and beautiful rhythm. Students got the opportunity to practice several steps, from basic to more challenging, and all had a great time. At first, some of the students were nervous about their ability to dance, but they found out just how creative they could be. This year, Mrs. Aiton led the lessons, drawing from her own dancing skills. The students gained confidence and a new appreciation, in a spirit of fun collaboration. Students studying Spanish at WHS are regularly exposed to cultural aspects and practices in Spanish-speaking countries, including El Dia de Muertos and La Semana Santa, and they learn about key historical periods in Spain and Latin America.
