2nd and 3rd Grade: September 27, 2017

This week, we continued interviewing our classmates in Spanish about their pets!  After that, we learned a few action words to talk about what our pets do.

**On Wednesday, October 11, students will be able to bring a picture of their pet(s) to class.  Students can bring in an actual photograph, a drawing, or you can email me a digital picture that I will add to a slide show (ambrouwer@hollandchristian.org).  Students will have an opportunity to introduce their pet to the class in Spanish.  If you don't have a pet, your student can choose to draw/find/email me a picture of their dream pet, a friend/family member's pet, or talk about a favorite animal instead.

Ask your student:
  • What was Señora Brouwer's joke that she told the class?  (What did one fish say to the other fish?  NADA!!  In Spanish, "nada" means he/she swims, but it also means "nothing.")
Vocabulary:
Words in bold are new this week, others are review.
  • corre - he/she runs
  • nada - he/she swims
  • vuela - he/she flies
  • la tortuga - the turtle
  • el hámster - the hamster
  • el pájaro - the bird
  • el pez - the fish
  • la culebra - the snake
  • el conejo - the rabbit
  • tengo - I have
  • tienes - you have
  • tiene - he/she has
  • la mascota - the pet
  • el perro - the dog
  • el gato - the cat

    Homework:
    • Bible Memory:  This semester, we'll be memorizing 2 Corinthians 13:11 as an (HC)2 group.  We will practice memorizing this verse in Spanish.
      • Printed Version
      • Audio Version 
      • Online Games and Practice  (Note:  Students do NOT have to have a Quia account to do these games and activities.  The Battleship style game is the best beginner option!)

        • Quia:  Battleship style "fill in the blanks" practice
