¡Hola chic@s!

October was a great month. We practiced our abecedario and new vocabulario. Do you remember how many letters the abecedario en español has? Exacto! 27 letras. Ñ(en-yeh) is the letter that we don´t have in English. Can you say these words? niño, niña, piñata. We can continue to practice our abecedario when spelling a word.

Our younger kids are really good at identifying the vocales (vowels) now. Don´t forget to say them as loud as you can!!!

A – avión

E – elefante

I – iglú

O – oso

U – unicornio

 

¿Origami en Español?

How did you like doing origami? Should we do it again? Most of you were great at following instructions in Spanish and made beautiful hojas (leaves) like the ones in our árbol de otoño. Remeber to say “Hola, árbol de otoño” to our tree every time you come to class.

 

Día de los muertos

As you all know, Día de los muertos is celebrated on November 2 in Mexico. It´s a colorful tradition to remember our family, friends and even pets that passed away. It´s a time to be happy rather than sad because the souls of our loved ones come to visit us and we should have an ofrenda with lots of food, candy, flowers and candles to welcome them. Thank you for doing a great job making the flores, papel picado, pan de muerto, tamales, calaveritas de azúcar and putting everything together for our ofrenda. Thank you parents for sending pictures. The food and flowers in our ofrenda are not real but in an actual ofrenda, they have to be real.
