2/3: January 8, 2014

Today in class, started a new unit!  Over the next few weeks, we'll be learning all about Costa Rica!  We started today by talking about the capital, the flag, and the money.

Ask your student:

• Do you remember what color the taxis are in Costa Rica?  (In San José, the capital, they have red taxis!)
• What are the 3 colors on Costa Rica's flag?  (Red, white, and blue)
• Do you remember how much 500 colones are worth?  (500 Costa Rican Colones are worth about $1.)

Today's vocabulary:

• la capital - the capital
• el dinero - the money
• la bandera - the flag

Homework:

• Sing along with our new song:  Tengo paz como un río
