1st Grade: February 19, 2020

Today in Spanish class, we reviewed the "Diego está enfermo" book.  Next week, we'll use a lot of that same vocabulary as we begin listening to a familiar story in Spanish!

Ask your student:
  • Who was the estrellita in class today?  (No one!  Everyone has had two turns.  We don't have enough time for everyone to have a third turn, so next week, we'll start something new!) 
  • What does "¿Cómo estás?" mean?  (It means "How are you?"  Today, we took turns answering that question to start class.)
Vocabulary:
Words in bold are new this week, others are review
  • quiere - he/she wants
  • comer - to eat
    • quiere comer - he/she wants to eat
  • está enfermo - he is sick
  • está enferma - she is sick
  • tengo hambre - I am hungry
  • tiene hambre - he/she is hungry
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 a passage from Jeremiah 17.  In Spanish class, we will also be memorizing verse 7 in Spanish.  
  • Bendito quien que confía en el Señor.  Jeremías 17:7
  • Audio Version (Coming next week) 
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 (featuring Pedro!) to practice weather vocabulary words.  Each week, we'll work on a Spanish weather report. 
  • 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.
