Buenos días padres,

This week we had a special treat as a result of circumstance. The teacher who uses room # 34 before us, needed her classroom a bit longer to finish an art project with her students. So both classes – Los Chicos and Los Chicos 2 – took a short excursion to the mini forest outside to learn and play a new game together:

- Juguemos en el bosque mientras el Lobo no está… ¿¡¡LOBO ESTÁ!!?

- Let’s play in the forest while the Wolf isn’t there… WOLF, ARE YOU THERE!!?

The students sing the song ending with the resounding question, which the hiding Lobo answers, describing a morning chore he is busy attending to. After two or three times Lobo comes out ready to run after the kids much to their surprise and wild excitement. Whomever Lobo tags in the forest becomes the Wolf, ready for the next round. Please keep in mind it is simply a coincidence that my name is Wolff a.k.a. Señor Lobo. Everyone got a chance to be the Wolf and had a lot of fun…Try this game to get your Lobo/a ready for school in the morning!

                           Juguemos en el bosque, mientras el Lobo no está... ¿¡¡LOBO ESTÁ!!?


                                            ¡¡¡¡SÍÍÍ!!!!, VOY A COMERLOS A TODOS..
                                              YES!!! I AM GOING TO EAT YOU ALL...

Once back in the classroom, we had a chance to follow up on colors and learn the new song – Los Colores by Luis Pescetti. Everyone should have the lyrics in their binder and is expected to learn the song by next Wednesday. Have your child pay close attention to the tongue twisting chorus, which they found hilarious.

Some students insisted in writing sentences for next week (others complained of time management issues). Those motivated to write, using any topic and vocabulary we learned so far, will certainly get a chance at the podium to present their work to the rest of the class.


Hasta el próximo Miércoles,

Señor Lobo
