Greetings Parents!
This week we continued our work on body parts, but also introduced a few new topics.
One of the kids' favorite songs that we've been working on for the past two weeks is Perro Sancho (Bingo).
Un perro grande tengo yo y el se llama SANCHO.
Ese-Ahh-Ene-Che-O, Ese-Ahh-Ene-Che-O, Ese-Ahh-Ene-Che-O y el se llama SANCHO.
Un perro grande tengo yo y el se llama SANCHO.
Clap-Ahh-Ene-Che-O, Clap-Ahh-Ene-Che-O, Clap-Ahh-Ene-Che-O y el se llama SANCHO.
Just like the Bingo version, after each round of the song, I remove a letter from our feltboard. With each repetition, a new letter is replaced with a hand clap through the six verses of the song. By the sixth verse, all the letters are replaced by hand claps.
Stories/Cuentos:
This week we introduced a new story: Los Tres Gatitos
Los tres gatitos (The Three Little Kittens) is a story adapted from the nursery rhyme. It tells the story of three little kittens who lose and then find their mittens. After they find their mittens, they are rewarded with pie, causing their mittens to get dirty. They are scolded again by their mother. This time they wash their mittens and are rewarded with a mouse.
This story allows us to reinforce some of the vocabulary that we have learned previously, including colors: the kittens are gris (grey), cafe (brown) and blanco (white) and the mittens are rojo (red), azul (blue) and verde (green). We also practice our numbers uno-seis as we count up the mittens. Finally we reinforce a few emotion vocabulary words: enojado/a (angry), triste (sad) and feliz (happy).
