Miercoles 25 de marzo

Easter is coming soon and fast; for that occasion we all made our own booklet about the topic, introducing the usual words about the celebration and writing more sentences about that special day in a school year.
You can help your child by having her read that booklet and writing more using the vocabulary we all shared for Easter.

And above all: Happy Easter !

The students wanted a challenge for the class, so I had for them a sheet full of sentences to translate from English to Spanish and from Spanish to English, using our words and expressions learned during the last weeks.
It was very interesting to see how thrilled everybody was to work on that project and to succeed in completing those sentences. It's very encouraging for a next time.

We added numbers to our lesson, basic counting forward to also backward. We put it into practice with dates, age and time.
Playing at home with numbers in Spanish would help your child get more familiar with those new concepts.

Today we worked on dates and how to tell when a person was born. We went through the calendar and formed basic sentences as.
"Yo naci en el mes de abril"
Step by step our sentences are getting longer and require regular practice to stay alive.

Today we put our cards together to have it ready for next week.
In the meantime,we discovered the Chinese zodiac so that we could talk about animals, birthdays and siblings.

In order to put everything into practice, today we made our own card game, so that each student had to imagine a family, with a name and members, thus adding more words to our knowledge.
We tested it by creating sentences telling what they had and what they were asking for.

We practiced again, this time in teams. Thanks to the practice, the game was faster, words came out easily, and by the end, some families were reunited, for the fun of our students.

So, if practice could be carried on at home, all the better !
