Miércoles 19 de marzo

Today was a special day for many reasons:
i- Senor Lobo went to teach to the Chiquitos class;
ii- Abuela Lobo came to replace him for the occasion;
iii- we grouped our 2 classes together for a cooking lesson;
iv- Abuela Lobo came with flan !!

So the lesson was about the empanadas the kids made and cooked last time;
we drew the ingredients, made a list and wrote a text about the recipe.
That was much work and we finished the class with a delicious flan served with dulce de leche, specially made by Abuela Lobo; yummy !!

Next week will be the last week before Spring Break
hasta pronto !!

In order to put into practice the concept of verbs and working on sentences, we built up today a school schedule with the days and the periods.
Introducing notions like "antes de..." and "después de...", your child can express sentences situated in time.
And that's what we do with a little incentive into it: For each sentence written by them, independently, two shining stars will be stuck on a trophy to show their progressions.
We'll get more next week !!

Today, Señor Lobo had decided to make and cook empanadas, so we joined his group to discover that aspect of the Argentine cuisine. The instructions were given in Spanish and our little cooks succeeded in making a little bag full of those delicacies.
This entertaining activity will help us learn new verbs and new terms for future lessons.

We practiced our discovery of the conjugation, learning new -AR verbs to build more and  more sentences like: "Yo canto una canción." It was an opportunity to review our High-Frequency words and to add now ones:
"yo", "tú", "tu", "él", "el" and "ella". We finished our class with a word game, the funniest way to remember words and to realize how much we already learned.

Miércoles 19 de febrero

This lesson was an introduction to the basic conjugation of regular Spanish verbs ending in -AR. As a model, we took "hablar" that we conjugated as: yo hablo tù hablas él habla ella habla From this, your child can use a lot of -AR verbs in the present tense, and we started with some useful ones. Then, enjoying the sun, we played with words on a table outside putting into practice what we just learned. And we'll continue next week !! Hasta Luego !!

Today we made Valentine cards for Friday, and to see how much we already knew in a playful way, we took out a Scrabble game and tried to form as many words as we could from ten letters. It is a very practical game that I recommend you to play at home, it helps your child to venture into the language, in a funny way, and to recognize words patterns. After a practice time, we then built words on the board learning how to form Spanish long words.

Today we moved to another room and continued with a book about the Chinese New Year. We read it, learned new words and then understood the little story. From it, we wrote short sentences to get acquainted to those new words.
