2nd and 3rd Grade: November 12, 2014

Today in class, we began to talk about what students are thankful for.  We learned how to say those words in Spanish.  Over the next few weeks, we'll be learning more vocabulary to express thankfulness in Spanish.  We also continued practicing numbers...we're up to 49!

Ask your student:

• What is something that you are thankful for?  Do you know how to say that in Spanish?  (The vocabulary list below may be helpful!)

This week's vocabulary (based on what students said they were thankful for):

• Doy gracias por - I give thanks for
• las personas - the people
• mi familia - my family
