Dear Parents and Grandparents,
                             I am so very happy with the progress of all of our students! Yesterday's presentations of dialogues in Spanish by Grades 4, 5, and 6 were fantastic.  Some students referred to their script, but most of the students memorized their lines.  All students in Grades 2 through 6 have a dialogue to study for next week.  Of course, the scripts are not identical for all grades.  Grades 2 and 3 have a very short dialogue emphasizing previously learned vocabulary.  Students will make the presentation with a partner.  I encouraged children to team up with a classmate who can help them to read their lines.  We practiced in class on Monday.  I will leave additional copies of the dialogue with Melissa in the Main Office if students lose their copy or for  those students  who were not in attendance on Monday.

Grade 3 also has new vocabulary to learn from our food unit.  They interviewed one another (in Spanish) about what foods they eat.  I require students to come to class with their Spanish notebooks, but some still do not bring them to class.  Please remind your child about that for me.
Most students finished their paragraph stating food classmates eat. They just need to study the paragraph.  Others need to finish the paragraph for next Monday, March 3.  Please ask your child to share the new vocabulary with you.  I am very proud of your children!
Grades K-4, 5 and 1st grade are also learning the names of common foods. Grades K-4 , K-5 and Grade 1 have  many  students who absolutely amaze me with their desire to learn new words and expressions. I love it!

Grade 2 played a game based on the names of foods.  Grade 2 also has students very eager to learn Spanish.  I am proud of them!  Miss Lisa has their dialogue.  They will be working in class to learn the dialogue.  Kane, Carter, and Caden volunteered to help students with the dialogue. 

Thank you for your interest in our Spanish Language Program.  Please contact me if you have any questions about assignments. 

                                                  Atentamente,
                                                      Srta. Linda
