Vamos a comer!

Hola a todos!


Here's a brief review from two weeks ago. The CASA project is still ongoing. It will continue to its second week, so we can learn well the new vocabulary. The pictures from this project will be coming next weekend.

Also, since some parents asked me, during our food lesson, how to order in Spanish at a restaurante, here's the information for everyone:

- To order from the menu you could say: " Yo Quiero...(the meal) por favor" - I want...please.
- Gracias - Thank you
- To ask for the bill you could say: "La cuenta por favor." La cuenta - The bill-check
- Propina -  Tip

Here are some pictures from the review week on the food lesson, and a role play activity we had on practicing how to order at a restaurant. The children created their own menus too. Enjoy them!

Beginning French- Korematsu

Bonjour à tous!

Je m'appelle Johanne! I'm a new teacher with TALK at Korematsu Elementary and enjoying it very much so far :)

We finished up our semester learning about "les vêtements" (clothing) and reviewing "la famille." We dressed up some dolls and drew each other's families. 

The upper doll is wearing  "une robe" and the lower "une jupe, un t-shirt, et des lunettes de soleil." (Forgive me, I am unable to rotate the image!)

Alex drew some of her family members for us!
 For the next two weeks we are going to learn about "la nourriture"- food!! What is your favorite French dish? Personally, j'adore la quiche!



Bon appétit et à bientôt!
-Johanne
