2nd and 3rd Grade: September 6, 2017

This week in Spanish, we began learning the vocabulary for our first unit.  We'll be learning all about pets in Spanish!  This week, we only learned about cats and dogs, but we'll learn more soon!  (As we have fun talking about pets we have or want to have, we'll really be focusing on the verbs "to have" and "to want" in Spanish.)

We also began learning our Bible memory verse (2 Corinthians 13:11) 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.")
• If Señora Brouwer asks you "¿Tienes mascota?" how would you answer? (The question asks if you have a pet, so the answer would be "sí" or "no.")

Vocabulary:
Words in bold are new this week, others are review.

• tengo - I have
• tienes - you have
• tiene - he/she has
• la mascota - the pet
• el perro - the dog
• el gato - the cat

Homework:

• Quia Vocabulary/Language practice: 
• Note:  If you have students in the 4th-6th grade classes, they have a username and password for Quia.  For 2nd and 3rd grade, I do not assign usernames and passwords, and the activities won't require that information.  These assignments are optional vocabulary review for students.  Please let me know if you have any questions.   
• Also, if your computer has trouble loading the activity, there should be an option to "play the HTML version."  The graphics won't be as elaborate, but the content is the same.  
• Mascotas Week 1 Vocabulary (Battleship-style game!)

• 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 (will be working by Saturday afternoon)
