Int Spa - Korematsu - Mid January Post

Hola padres de TALK 🌞

These past two weeks the kids had been reviewing opposites, directions and animals (this last one was requested by the students!

Last week we reviewed opposites, and the kids actually asked me to give them more vocabulary! I was so surprised and excited to see they were so engaged with the topic and just wanted to learn more. To review this topic we played the matching game.

We also reviewed giving directions, which was a bit of a tricky topic! We reviewed this vocab along with the verb conjugations for caminar (to walk). The kids were given a map and some directions, so they had to find the final destination by following the directions given. We also worked on an obstacle course, where the kids had to say the directions in Spanish before being able to more forward. At each check-point on the obstacle course they were asked an opposite of a word, and the kids really enjoyed this game!

This week we are reviewing animals. On Monday we reviewed pets and the verbs tener (to have) and querer (to want). The kids were able to draw pictures of their pets or the pets they want. They practice writing in Spanish forming sentences that described their pictures. Today we reviewed sea animals along with the verb vivir (to live). The kids worked on making play-dough figurines of the sea animals we reviewed.

Below some photos of these past two weeks:
