1st Grade: January 15, 2014

This week in Spanish class, we continued our new unit:  ¡Qué Rico! (How Delicious!).  During this unit, we'll be learning about some common, traditional foods from the Spanish speaking world.  This week we talked about flan from Spain.

Ask your student:

• What are two ingredients in Flan?  (The two main ingredients are milk and eggs.  Flan sort of tastes like pudding but it feels wiggly, like Jello, in your mouth.) 

Today's vocabulary:

• tengo sed - I'm thirsty
• la leche - the milk
• los huevos - the eggs
• la nata - the cream 
• el flan - custard like dessert that is common in Spain and the rest of the Spanish speaking world.

Homework:

• Sing along with our new song:  Si tu tienes mucha hambre, come un pan (If You're Hungry, Eat Some Bread).
• Watch this video.  It's a Spanish speaking cooking show and they're making flan!  You won't understand every word, but see how many times you hear the words "leche" and "huevos" 
• New Bible verse for January and February: 1 John 14:19  (Click for audio version)
• Nosotros amamos porque Él nos amó primero.  Primero de Juan 14 versículo 19.
• To review calendar/weather vocabulary at home, you can sing along with these songs...
• Days of the week
• Weather, seasons, and months
