March updates from Spanish class!

We are finishing up our study of clothing and reviewed colors and numbers. Upper Elementary students have been working hard to say the prices of different clothing items in complete sentences in Spanish. Next, we will be moving on to a unit about healthy food!

During Read Across America Day and the classes that followed, Grades 3-5 read Eric  Carle's classic book The Very Hungry Caterpillar/La oruga muy hambrienta as a lead-in to our unit on food. Students did a phenomenal job taking turns reading aloud. We've done some practice centered around the proper pronunciation of vowels, beginning "h" words, and the letter "j" in Spanish, and students really showed off their ability to pronounce both familiar and unfamiliar words in Spanish. Students will be learning to describe their likes and dislikes and will practice giving the prices of different food items as well, evaluating if the items are "caro" (expensive) or "barato" (cheap). 

¡Hasta pronto!
