5th and 6th Grade: October 31, 2018

Today in class, continued our unit:  ¡Vamos a Chile!  (Let's go to Chile!)  We played a game to practice all of the vocabulary and geography of Chile that we have been studying.  Then, we learned about Chile's national food-empanadas!

Ask your student:
    • What is Chile's national food?  (It is the empanada.  It's like a "Hot Pocket."  It is meat or cheese wrapped up in bread.)
    • Do you remember which words you had during the "Headbands" game?  Who did you have to try to find?  (Everyone had to figure out what word was on their forehead and find their match. For example, the person with "la Capital" had to find "Santiago.")
