Spanish
December 2023
Note from your teacher
We hope you are all doing well. We can hardly believe December break is here! These weeks we continue finishing Unit 2 across all the grades. Students continue working diligently in these projects and it is wonderful to see how much more confident they are now presenting and talking with other classmates in Spanish! In kindergarten students colored a kite and they said the colors in Spanish; in first grade students are finishing the book project "Mi escuela Lowell," and they are presenting their project to the class. In second grade, students are creating their ideal schedule while using the sentence "en la mañana tengo____ (in the morning I have______); en la tarde tengo______(in the afternoon I have______). In third grade, students are working on a project "All About Me." In fourth grade students are interviewing classmates and in fifth grade, students are doing a project about a famous person from one of the 21 Hispanic speaking countries to present it to the class. In this project, they ask and answer questions about the famous person.
We are looking forward to continue learning and practicing Spanish with your child(ren)!
Have a great December break and happy holidays!
Saludos,
Sra. Quesada & Sra. Mitchell
