This week, we read a short story about Palm Sunday in Spanish, and learned some new songs (check out the links below!)

Ask your student:

• Who was the "estrellita" today?  (We're working our way through second turns.)
• Can you show me your book from Spanish class today?  

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

• es - he/she is

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!

Bible Verse:
This semester, our (HC)2 group will be memorizing Psalm 23 in English.  In 1st and 2nd Grade, we will also be memorizing the first verse in Spanish.

• El Señor es mi pastor; nada me falta.  Salmos 23:1 (veintitrés, versículo uno).  
• Audio Version

Homework:
Occasionally, I will post links to videos, songs, or other resources for you to watch with your child over the week.  This is not required homework, but it is an opportunity to provide exposure to Spanish during the week. 

• Watch this video to practice greetings and family vocabulary.
• Watch this video (featuring Pedro!) to practice more weather vocabulary words.
• Me llamo, Me llamo (Song to practice ¿Cómo te llamas? What's your name?)
• Note for YouTube Links:  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.
