Hola padres,

These past two weeks class was great. The students learned how to ask questions, and they learned about body parts and clothing. This week the students created a small wardrobe that helped them learn the different types of clothing. Although they were not able to finish they still enjoyed making them. I noticed the students enjoying coloring and drawing, which took them longer than what I expected, but still had fun. Therefore, they were able to take their wardrobe project home to finish.

Overall the class has been going well and I am looking forward on providing you all with more drawings and colorings from the kids.

Warm regards,
Irene Sanchez

Here are some pictures!

Patwin Elementary Intermediate Spanish

Hola padres,

These past two weeks students have been learning about the articles to be able to form sentences. Students really enjoyed learning about the articles because it made it easier for them to refer to/describe things in Spanish and complete their own sentences. We participated in different activities for them to practice the articles such as: el, la, los, las, un, unas, and unos. These activities allowed students to practice saying and using the articles. I gave them the opportunity to come up with their own sentences and this is what they came up with.  We also played an activity where I wrote the different articles on one side of a sticky note and on the other side they had to write a sentence using that specific article. Students really enjoyed this activity because there was some competition for prizes and they were able to demonstrate what they had learned! 

Thank you for taking the time to read and happy holidays,

Maestra Jessica(:

Patwin Beginning ASL Week 11


                

Hello all! This week in the Patwin Beginning ASL class,  we are learning everyday useful signs. Today, we focused on signs you’d use in a restaurant, for example: “I want order....” The kids came up with a story about Bob, who went to a restaurant and ate a lot of food! And here are pictures of a couple of brave students who went up and signed the whole story on their own! One is in the middle of signing hamburger, while the other is signing lemonade. 
Thank you for checking in! :)
