Today in class, we began talking about a New Year's Eve tradition in Spain!

Ask your student:

Vocabulary:
Words in bold are new this week, others are review
  • ¿Cuándo? - When?
  • diciembre - December
  • Nochevieja - New Year's Eve
  • medianoche - midnight
  • ¿Dónde? - Where?
  • España - Spain
  • tengo - I have

Song of the Week
Each week, we'll listen to and sing along with a fun song in Spanish.  It's a fun way to get us all up and moving while learning more!  If possible, I'll post a link to the song here so you can listen at home as well!
  • Tiburones de Navidad (Christmas Sharks)
  • Bebé T-Rex (Baby T-Rex)
  • El Bugi de la Selva (The Jungle Boogie) ~ Just for fun!
  • Mono Bananas (Monkey and Bananas)~based on Bebé Tiburón, but uses some of our new vocabulary.  (P.S.  In Spanish, both "el plátano" and "la banana" mean "the banana.")
  • Bebé Tiburón (Baby Shark). 
    • Note for YouTube Link:  I cannot control/predict the advertisements that YouTube will play before a song.  Please be aware of this and watch videos with your child so that you can monitor ads.
