K-5 is learning farm animals.  They will soon begin learning "De Colores" in Spanish. It is a traditional Spanish folk song which includes the names of some farm animals, hence our work on learning farm animals in Spanish.  They know the days of the week and are really making excellent progress learning the months of the year and the four seasons. I am very proud of them!

Grade 1 continues to make excellent progress understanding and responding correctly to basic questions in Spanish. We will begin a unit on food next week. 

Grade 2 played a game to learn the names of animals.  They have mastered the days of the week and do well with the months of the year.  I want to begin short, simple dialogues in Spanish with second graders.  On Monday, they will receive their first dialogue in Spanish to try to learn or at least be able to read and present in front of other students.  The interest level is very high with this group of second language learners.  They have some excellent class leaders who love working with other students on the task  at hand.  I appreciate that!
    Once again, I want to thank parents, St. John's teachers, teaching assistants, and Miss Stone for their support of the Spanish Resource Program.
