Monday, September 26      


K-5  Students reviewed the terms for fork, spoon and knife in Spanish. They had remembered the song we learned last week!  I like to make learning fun for  children by using chants, poems, and songs to help reinforce new concepts and vocabulary.  We also reviewed favorite foods and how to express likes and dislikes.


Grade 1   The children reviewed the names of utensils in Spanish and played a singing game to identify each utensil. 🍴


Grade 2  Grade 2 did not meet due to a Student Council Assembly in the gym.

Grade 3  Students did not bring their dialog to class due to confusion about where to keep Spanish handouts.  All third graders need a Spanish notebook.  The children must keep all Spanish handouts in their SPANISH NOTEBOOK, a spiral type composition book.  The homework sheet should be left in the spiral notebook.  The Spanish notebook should go home on Monday and come back on the following Monday. Please make sure your child has a spiral notebook for Spanish only.

I will supply another copy of the dialog about weather to the children tomorrow, Tuesday.  They need to keep it in their spiral notebook and study it for our next class. The students who did not bring their notebook on Monday because of the confusion about handouts will receive a "Prepared." NOTE:  Handouts and homework should always be kept in the spiral notebook.  The notebook may be included in the homework folder, but any handouts should be retained inside the notebook and not discarded.  We often use handouts as our textbook.

Grade 4  Students worked in pairs to present the weather dialogue.  They received an oral language grade on this presentation.

The homework  is to change the name of the city to another city where it is cold in winter; such as New York, Boston, Detroit, or Milwaukee.  They may also change the name of the winter month. Students will present their new dialogue next week. I have some very talented second language-learners in Grade 4.🌨



Grade 5  Students presented their weather dialogues.  They need to change the name of the city and month to another city and month that is cold in winter.  They will present the new dialogue next week.  It is homework. Our fifth graders have excellent Spanish oral language skills!


Grade 6  Students received their prizes for Most Creative Book.  They also received a list of questions to answer in Spanish based on their autobiographies. Preparing  their answers is homework.   They will be test orally next Monday.  Questions 1- 7 only. Individual students answered specific questions in class to demonstrate the proper form necessary for a correct answer.  I encourage students  to answer in complete sentences in Spanish. Both classes are doing very well.  Homework  is an important part of our study of Spanish.


                                                                 

                                                  🏈    Happy Monday Night Football!
