Uno

I love playing games with my students. Games help build social skills, good sportsmanship, reasoning, and much more. I was playing Uno with several students. One of the girls in the group was a native Spanish speaker. She would frequently flip between English and Spanish. She got down to one card in her hand and she yelled at the top of her lungs "ONE!" When the other students said that's not the right word, she sat there for a minute thinking and said, "One?" We all thought it was funny because she had taught the class how to count in Spanish. At last the word came to her and she said, "Uno"
