1st Grade: September 16, 2015

This week, we started class with a new weather phase:  "hace calor" (it's hot).  We practiced our Bible verse in Spanish (Psalm 100), and we continued talking about farm animals.  We played a game to review all of the words we've learned so far.

Ask your student:

• What new animal did you learn about this week?  (This week we learned the phrase "el caballo" = the horse)
• What does a frog say in Spanish?  (They don't say "ribbit."  In Spanish, they say "croac, croac.")

This week's vocabulary:

• Weather
• Review
• hace sol - it's sunny
• New
• hace calor - it's hot
• Animals/Actions/Colors

Homework:

• Bible Memory Verse!
• This year, all of the (HC)2 Students will be memorizing Psalm 100 during the first semester.  We will also be memorizing part of it in Spanish class!  This week, we started by learning just the first verse in Spanish.  We'll continue working on the first verse until students are ready to move on!
• Canten al Señor con alegría, toda la tierra.  Salmos 100:1 (cien, versículo uno)
• Audio version (the audio version includes more than just the first verse, but it may still be helpful for 1st Grade students)
