4th Grade: October 18, 2017

Today in class, we completed our first unit of the year.  We learned a few new vocabulary words and then read a short, Spanish version of Daniel in the Lions' Den.

Ask your student:
  • Can you share the store of Daniel with me in Spanish?  (We made a small book in class with the story.)
Vocabulary
Words in bold are new this week, others are review.
  • la ley - the law
  • ora - he/she prays
  • Dios - God
  • el rey - the king
  • el palacio - the palace
  • ¿por qué? - why?
  • porque - because
  • tiene miedo (de) - he/she is afraid (of)
  • está en - he/she is located in
  • pone - he/she puts
  • otro - other/another
  • tiene - he/she has
    • NOTE:  Our 4th grade students had some great questions and we talked a bit about some differences between Spanish and English.  In questions and sentences with a "no" or "not" we say "have" in English, but they still use "tiene" in Spanish.  
      • Example:  Ana does not have a tomato = Ana no tiene un tomate.
      • Example:  Does Francisco have a cat?  = ¿Tiene Francisco un gato?
  • es - he/she it is
  • el hombre - the man
  • trabaja - he/she works
  • le dice - he/she says to him/her
  • se llama - he/she is called (named)
  • hay - there is/there are

Homework:
Please email me if you need your Quia username and/or password.
  • Final Assignment for this unit: 
    • Instead of a Quia assignment, the final assignment for this unit was handed out in class.  If you misplaced the paper, you can print a new copy.
  • Quia Vocabulary/Language practice:  
    •   None this week! See the Final Assignment for this unit. 
  • 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.
