Estimadas familias,

I hope you had a good Easter holiday.

          In Spanish class Los Chicos had reason to celebrate. In retrospect, we staged an Easter egg hunt outside, along with the Intermediate class, to look for eggs made not of chocolate or by chickens, but of glass tumbled smooth by the waves and sand in our beloved Océano Pacífico. Yes, these were seaglass eggs handpicked from north coast beaches by our family and hidden at school by my daughter Elena (a.k.a., Señorita Loba), who acted as my assistant.


As you can see, each student proudly displays their seaglass treasure.

          We did have some time for reading. Great translations of Dr. Seuss's work remain on the favorites list - this time it was ¡Yo Puedo Leer con los Ojos Cerrados! (I Can Read with my Eyes Shut!). Scholars also took turns reading Necesito una Ayudita (I need a Liittle Help).

          Celebrations were not over however. It turns out Tuesday was Cordelia's 9th birthday! We were treated by Abuela Loba's timeless family cake recipe, complete with nine candles. Everyone sang the birthday song (in Spanish, of course) and enjoyed a small piece of cake along with a bit of milk.

          Al in all it was a productive and fun session enjoyed by everyone.

Hasta la semana que viene, (Until the coming week,)

Señor Lobo
