More opposites!

Hola padres! I am so excited to report that the kids are solidly learning their Spanish survival phrases. It is so  amazing to see them asking to go to the bathroom in Spanish with very little prompting or help from me or their classmates. They are doing an amazing job!

We continued with opposites this week. The scholars learned "arriba, abajo, izquierda, derecha, lleno y vacio." We had fun practicing each one with body movements that I hope will help solidify the meanings in their heads.  It was so fun when one student from each class recognized that "arriba" is also the name of a nearby restaurant. Their sharp little minds are always working!

The next few classes will find us working on a few commands as well as having the children learning how to provide information about what they see, do and want. We'll see how this goes! Have a wonderful weekend!

Adios,
Sra. Hamilton
