2nd and 3rd Grade: November 2, 2016

In Spanish class today, we began a new unit!  Over the next few weeks, we'll be talking about piñatas as we learn about the important Spanish verbs "tiene" (has) and "es" (is).

Ask your student:

• What are some things you know about piñatas?  What are some things you want to know about piñatas?  (We talked about this together as a class.  Over the next few weeks, we'll learn more about what a piñata is made of, and what sorts of surprises it has in other places.)

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

• tiene - he/she/it has
