Hola padres! This was a week of review as we continued to learn how to express our feelings in first grade, returned to shapes in Kindergarten and studied soccer more in depth in P.E.
For soccer, we have practiced the basic soccer skills we learned in late October and are learning some techniques to better improve those skills. I hope to have the scholars play some mini games next week! They are all doing a wonderful job of letting me know if they are hot, cold or thirsty en español while we are playing.
Next week in Spanish, we look to improve our knowledge of the days of the week as well as learning how to describe the weather.
With the holidays approaching, I am looking for ways for my own children to experience how these days are celebrated in Spanish speaking countries. One of these ways is with of course, the food. Tamales are a food that families spend hours making. I know that last year, the Avondale Senior Center had a fundraiser where you could order tamales and have them for the holidays. It is my hope to be able to order a dozen or so for my own family. I have been checking the website and there isn't any information up yet, but should be soon. Once I find anything out, I will let you know. Tamales are a very traditional way to celebrate the holidays and my children always enjoy eating them.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Sra. Hamilton
