Kindergarten: September 9, 2015

This week in Spanish class we reviewed the classroom command words from last week and we even learned a new one.  We played "Simón Dice" (Simon Says) to review those words.

We also began learning some common greetings in Spanish.  We used pictures, actions, and a song to help us remember these new phrases.

Finally, we 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.")
• How do you say "Good Morning" to someone in Spanish?  (Good morning is "Buenos días")

This week's vocabulary:

• Classroom commands
• se levanta - he/she stands up
• se sienta - he/she sits down
• rápidamente - quickly
• lentamente - slowly
• escucha - he/she listens
• Greetings
• Hola- hello
• Buenos días - Good morning
• Buenas tardes - Good afternoon
• Buenas noches - Good night

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 Kindergarten students)
