3rd grade Spanish classes have been learning about hobbies (pasatiempos) like sports (deportes) and instruments (instrumentos), and how there are two different words for the verb "to play" - jugar and tocar -- see if they can remember which was is used for sports and which one for instruments. Yo juego el baloncesto. Es divertido y fácil. Yo toco la guitarra y el piano. Es difícil. We did a review game with Kahoot in class today. We were unable to finish the whole thing in class, so if you're able to have them do this at home, they would really enjoy that!
Here's the information you'll
need.

Also, I taught them how to
access quizlet.com/ACCSpanish345/classes
- Choose
the 3rd grade
- sort
by (alphabetical NOT latest) so that they can find the vocab to work on
the easiest
- They
can do -- flashcards, matching, test for 3.1 3.2
3.3 or 3.4
We have also
started learning about the Central American country of Honduras.
4th grade has
been practicing writing and reading in Spanish using vocabulary related to
school. Yo juego
el fútbol y yo toco el piano. Mi mamá no juega el fútbol y mi papá no
toca el piano. We've also been reviewing how to write
sentences about what sports and instruments they play. Our next chapter
will focus on vocabulary related to hobbies. Me gusta mucho jugar videojuegos y leer
libros. Yo juego los videojuegos el sábado y el domingo. Yo leo
todos los días. They
will also be learning about Mexico this quarter -- where the monarchs
migrate to, artist Diego Rivera and what Mexico City was originally built on
top of.
5th grade has
been learning about El Salvador - how they use US dollars there, drink horchata
and eat delicious pupusas and ceviche and saw the beautiful wall murals that El
Salvador has in many of their small villages – some featuring lots of
gatos! We just finished a chapter focusing on verb conjugation using
school vocabulary. Mi
clase favorita es ciencias. La maestra es Sra. Shasteen. Nosotros
aprendemos mucho en la clase! ¡Es muy divertida! The
students had a quiz over it recently and did very well! We're now heading
into a chapter reviewing how to tell time in Spanish. Son las nueve menos veinte de la mañana. o Son las ocho y
cuarenta de la mañana.
Hasta luego,
Sra. Watne
