AAPPL pw Reflection

I would rate myself as a N-3 level student. This is because I am able to list, identify, and name everyday things. I am also able to put these objects into simple, sometimes complex, sentences. My teacher is able to ,overall, interpret the meanings of my sentences.

In the video Oaxaca: Food of the New World, they teach us how to make traditional meals such as toleblanco and espado. They use corn in many of their dishes. Stoned soup, another famous dish they introduce to us in this video, is a dish that the men usualy cook to give the women a break. This video gives more information on how they eat. In The video Chile, it gives us a feel on how they blend different cultures and make it their own. This video blends more of the sea food varieties. They both gave us a feel on the food and culture that they live and breathe everyday.
