A busy afternoon was spent making flash cards for greetings.   The children cut out flashcards in Spanish and in the corresponding English and decorated envelopes to put their practice cards in.  They can practice with these at home.   We read The Very Hungry Caterpillar in Spanish and learned a new  fingerplay  which uses family vocabulary in Spanish.  Review is essential  when learning a language, and we will be continuing to add new  challenges while reviewing  phrases and vocabulary. We talked about all kinds of families throughout the  world, and looked at pictures of Guatemalan children and located the country on the map.  In the coming days we will talk about what we are grateful for, as well as the names of our facial features:  cejas (eyebrows),  ojos (eyes),  orejas (ears),  nariz (nose), and  boca  (mouth).  Hasta miercoles, chiquitos!
