5th and 6th: September 21, 2016

We continued learning about Chile this week!  We focused on learning some weather-related vocabulary as next week, we'll be talking about Chile's weather and geography all in Spanish!

Ask your student:
  • When it's fall here, what season is it in Chile?  (Since Chile is in the southern hemisphere, the seasons are the opposite.  So, it would be spring in Chile.)
  • Where is the desert in Chile?  (The Atacama Desert is in the northern part of Chile.)

  • el invierno - the winter
  • el verano - the summer
  • la primavera - the spring
