3rd Grade: September 9, 2015

This week in Spanish, we began learning the vocabulary for our first unit.  We'll be learning words and phrases to talk about our 5 senses in Spanish.  This week, we focused on our eyes and seeing.

We also spent some time practicing numbers in Spanish.  This week, we practiced numbers 1-20.

We also began learning our Bible memory verse (Psalm 100) in Spanish.  See the homework links below for more information!

Ask your student:
  • If Señora Brouwer says "Oh, alumnos" what do you say back?  ("Oh alumnos" means "Oh, students."  Students reply by saying, "Sí, maestra" which means "Yes, teacher.")
  • Do you remember the actions you learned to go with your Bible memory verse in Spanish?  (See how many of the actions they remember!  I'll post a video with actions some time in the next week.)
This week's vocabulary:
  • tengo - I have
  • tienes - you have
  • tiene - he/she has
  • la mascota - the pet
  • el perro - the dog
  • el gato - the cat
Homework:
  • Quia Assignment!  When we have a Quia assignment, students will be able to earn two stickers for completing it.  (At the end of the year, stickers can be traded in for prizes!)  To complete the Quia assignment, your student will need his or her Quia username and password.  Quia sent out an email with this information, but if you didn't receive the email or can't find it, please email me and I can get you that information right away.

    • A note about assignments:  These are for students to practice.  Most questions Quia is able to grade automatically and give instant feedback.  Students may retry questions or the entire assignment as often as they want.  If a student is "stuck" with vocabulary, the vocabulary list above is a great resource.
  • 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 two verses in Spanish.  
      • Canten al Señor con alegría, toda la tierra.  Con alegría adoren al Señor; ¡con gritos de alegría vengan a su presencia!  Salmos 100:1-2 (cien, versículo uno y dos)
      • Audio version
