Estimadas
familias,
This week we were inspired by the rainy
Wednesday to introduce vocabulary which describes the weather. Among others, ¡Hoy está lloviendo! (Today it is raining!) They also
learned a song about the rain and we got to take shelter in the classroom next
to ours for a few minutes, while room #34 was used by the resident teacher to
finish an art project with her class. Hot cocoa was served by one of our kind
parents, and we took the opportunity to play a short hand of UNO giving the
students a chance to review the names of colors.
Once back in our regular classroom we
distributed sea glass treasures as prizes for the Lotería game we played last week.
We went on to a
word game found in the text, challenging the students to create both the
longest and greatest number of Spanish words in a limited time. The students
had a blast and, as we in the prior week, we were joined for this activity by
the Los Chicos 2 Intermediate group.
Lastly, looking
towards El Día de Acción de Gracias, (Thanksgiving
Day) we read a superbly well translated, classic menu suggestion.
Please remember
there will be no class on the upcoming Wednesday November 27th due to the Thanksgiving break. May
your cranberry relish be the best ever!
Hasta el Miércoles 4 de
Diciembre,
Señor
