1st Grade: December 6, 2017

This week, we continued to practice a few family vocabulary words as we practiced Christmas vocabulary as well!

Ask your student:
  • What is a burrito?  What did "burrito" mean in the song you learned? (In most of the the Spanish speaking world, a "burrito" does not refer to food.  It refers to a small donkey.  We learned a new Christmas song in class today:  The Donkey of Bethlehem.  You can listen to the song HERE.) 
Vocabulary
Words in bold are new this week, others are review.
  • el burrito - the small donkey
  • Belén - Bethlehem
  • María - Mary
  • la mamá - the mom
  • José - Joseph
  • el papá - the dad
  • el Niño Jesús - the Baby Jesus
  • el establo - the stable
  • la estrella - the star
  • los ángeles - the angels
  • los pastores - the shepherds
Homework:
Note:  In first grade, most of our Spanish homework consists of watching short videos or songs to reinforce the vocabulary we learn in class.
