Kindergarten: September 11, 2019

Today in Spanish class, we continued our first unit.  We continued learning colors and family vocabulary words in Spanish.

Ask your student:

• Who was the estrellita in class today?  What does that mean?  (Each week, students will take turns being the estrellita - star - in Spanish class.  They get to sit in a special chair and be a special helper in the class.) 
• What family members did you learn about today?  What was silly about the dog?  (We learned the words for brother, sister, dog, and cat.  The toy dog was bigger than the dad!)

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

• anaranjado - orange
• verde - green
• morado - purple
• el hermano - the brother
• la hermana - the sister
• el perro - the dog
• el gato - the cat
• rojo - red
• azul - blue
• amarillo - yellow
• la mamá - the mom
• el papá - the dad
• el bebé - the baby  
• estrella - star 
• ¿Cómo te llamas? - What's your name?
• camina - he/she walks

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! 

• Tiburón Bebé (Baby Shark, YouTube link)

Bible Verse
This semester, our (HC)2 group will be memorizing a passage from Philippians 4.  In Spanish class, we will also be memorizing verse 4 in Spanish.

• Alégrense siempre en el Señor.  Insisto: alégrense.  Filipenses 4:4
• 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. 

• Me llamo, Me llamo (Song to practice ¿Cómo te llamas? What's your name?)
• 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.
