In your notebook, write a diary entry about a trip to the Argentinean Puppet Museum (Museo Argentino del Títere). Be sure to include the following:

A description of a puppet character you would like to create. Would it be a boy or a girl? Would the puppet be young or old? Would it be human or some type of animal? Or might it be an alien from another planet? This is your puppet, so it’s up to you what it looks like.
Below the puppet description, write an invitation to your family members for a show where they will meet your puppet character. Make sure to write down what time the show will begin. Use the correct Spanish expressions for telling time, and use as many Spanish vocabulary words as possible.

Diary Entry:

Date: October 14, 2023

Today, I had the most incredible experience visiting the Museo Argentino del Títere in Buenos Aires! The museum is a treasure trove of colorful and imaginative puppets from all over the world. As I walked through the exhibits, I was absorbed by the creativity of the artists and the stories behind each puppet. The atmosphere was filled with nostalgia and wonder, sparking my own imagination.

Inspired by the exquisite craftsmanship I encountered, I decided to create my very own puppet character. I envision a lively, young girl puppet named Luzia. Luzia is a spirited eight-year-old who has bright blue hair made from soft yarn, twinkling silver star stickers on her cheeks, and big, expressive eyes that show her boundless curiosity. She wears a playful dress adorned with patches of various colors and patterns, giving her a unique and cheerful appearance. Luzia’s character is adventurous; she loves to explore enchanted forests and meet magical creatures. Her personality is vibrant—full of wonder and kindness, resonating with all the children she meets.

I can't wait to introduce Luzia to my family! So, I've decided to organize a little puppet show at home to share this special character with them.

Invitation to the Puppet Show:

¡Querida familia!

¡Estoy muy emocionado de invitarlos a mi primer espectáculo de marionetas con mi nueva amiga Luzia! El show será el próximo sábado a las cinco de la tarde en nuestra sala de estar. Luzia está ansiosa por sorprenderlos con sus aventuras mágicas y maravillosas.

No se lo pierdan; será una experiencia inolvidable llena de risas y emoción. Espero verlos allí, listos para disfrutar de la magia de los títeres.

Con cariño, [Tu Nombre]


I just know they will love Luzia and the stories I have for her! What a perfect day at the museum, sparking creativity and connection with my family!
