tonguetwisters and quizlet

¡Hola!                                                                                                9 agosto 2019

We started the week in Spanish by learning a new “trabalengua”/ tonguetwister and by introducing ourselves to our classmates. Me llamo…  (Mucho gusto.)

3^rd grade – Pepe Piña pica papa. Pica papa Pepe Piña.

4^th grade – Amarillo es el patito, Amarillo es el limón, Amarillo es el pollito, que sale del cascarón.

5^th grade –  Pancha plancha con cuatro planchas.   ¿Con cuántas planchas Pancha plancha?

We finished the week by getting our Spanish materials ready for the year while listening to beautiful classical guitarist, Andrés Segovia.  All the students set up their Spanish folder, spiral, and flashcards.  In the spiral students glued an overview of what they will learn in Spanish this year, suggestions for how to succeed in learning a foreign language, alphabet and introductory materials. 

Their Spanish workbooks will be passed out to them the week of Aug. 19^th. We will start Unit 1.1 that week.  This next week we will continue reviewing and then we’ll start to learn about a Hispanic country toward the end of the week.  (Perú 3^rd, Nicaragua 4^th, and Bolivia 5^th.)

I gave “quizlet” and “spiral” for homework for next class. They are simply to show you their materials, and to try and access the quizlet website and hopefully login.  

It is a helpful fun tool for learning Spanish.  https://quizlet.com/ACCSpanish345  

I look forward to working with your students to help them have a great year in Spanish!

Let me know if you have any questions,

Sincerely,

Sra. Watne
