Hola Amigos y hola Noviembre ....

Hola Amigos,

We are working hard in Spanish.  All of us are  having a blast singing about our colors, numbers, days of the week and our months of the year, all in Spanish.  We are also aware of how some of our friends are feeling.  Ask you child and see what they say?  ¿Como Estes? How are you? See what your child says.  Or, ask your kiddo what Me Gusta means. Or, what their favorite day of the week is.  Most should answer by saying Me gusta....domingo, lunes, martes, miércoles, jueves, viernes, sábado OR even reply with domingo.  The fun is endless.

All grades use workbooks, color and practice our vocabulary use everyday.  Workbooks come home at the end of the year.  Be aware of our sheets that come home periodically from week to week.  All grades use the Spanish language in class that is enriched with adjectives, verbs, nouns, colors, greetings and much more.  If you are ever interested in getting more activities sent home with your child, please let me know.  I am happy to send more Spanish work home.  When our students see that la madre or el padre are interested they will want to aprender más:) Lastly, please enjoy a fun website where your child may practice more of their vocabulary. There are two fun games on www.abcya.com click on all games and search for Spanish bingo or Spanish word toss.  The fun is contagious.

¡Hasta pronto amigos!

What is new in Spanish?!

Hello Parents,

We are doing a lot of things in Spanish.  In kindergarten we are coloring in our books and enjoying singing our songs.  Most of our songs are about the colors, numbers, greetings and the seasons which also cover the weather changes too.

In first grade we are also working in our books, but cover more vocabulary.  Some of our vocabulary includes verb usage like, comer-to eat, beber-to drink, gustar-to like and jugar which means to play.

Second graders work enjoy working in their workbooks too.  We cover much more.  For example, we form sentences using the first, second and third person.  Ask your second grader what Yo como el pastel means. Or, Tú comes el pastel.  Our second graders are hard workers.

Third and fourth graders have workbooks to use in class as well.  The small difference is how long our sentences become. However, fourth graders are learning how to use the plural forms of the verbs we have learned in the previous years. Ask your child is they know what nosotros means or what the difference between ellas or ella means.

Always practice your Spanish at home at any given time possible. Tumble books is a great resource to use.  USERNAME Spoede/LOGIN books.

¡Hasta pronto!
Señora Mitchell
