We are starting to get back into our rhythm after a few weeks with lots of breaks and snow days! The kids have had a great week and have been working hard. Keep up the good work!
Here are more updates on our week...
Reading / Lectura: This week we have been learning the syllables ba, be, bi, bo, bu. To tell the difference between lowercase b and d, I tell the kids to look for the barriga (belly) in the front of the B. The dedo (finger) sticks up on the other side of the D.
Writing / Escritura: We are still working on pattern books! This week we finished our Oso Pardo (Brown Bear) pattern books and shared them with a partner. It was fun hearing the kids reading their books to each other!
Matemáticas: This week we have been continuing to work on parts of numbers, teen numbers, and reviewing and analyzing shapes together.
Bible / Biblia: We have been learning about how God led his people into the promised land. Even though the instructions didn't make much sense, Josué (Joshua) marched with the israelitas around the city of Jericó for seven days, and look what happened! Our God is faithful, and we are learning to trust in him!
Social Studies / Estudios Sociales: We learned about different types of penguins and enjoyed watching videos of them--and acting like them too!
Immersion Tip of the Week
Are you as amazed and excited about your child's learning journey as I am? Tell a friend! Spread the word to help our program continue to grow and thrive in the coming years. Enrollment for preschool and kindergarten begins this Thursday, February 1st!
Reading Tip of the Week
When reading with your child this week, ask him/her to retell the story to you in order after you finish it. Or, ask: "What happened at the beginning? The middle? The end?" Sequencing and retelling stories are important reading comprehension skills for your child to practice in English AND Spanish
