Hola Amigos de Igo, Burrell y Taylor

Dear Parents,

¡Hola!

Report cards will be sent out at the beginning of February, so be on
the lookout for your child’s grade in Spanish!

In First Grade, we began the New Year by reviewing numbers (1-20). We
also introduced the calendar, focusing on the days of the week. We will then
do a short unit on shapes – along with activities around Valentine’s Day. We
will then focus on the Weather. 

In Second grade, students have been studying a unit on the body parts
and have completed a self-portrait including a written description of
themselves.  We will then introduce the Spanish alphabet and counting by 10
to 100.

In Third grade, students are currently practicing time telling in
Spanish. They will then begin a unit on the House and furniture. At the end
of the unit, they will be working on “La Casa de mis sueños” (My Dream House)
project – where they will imagine their Dream House and describe it in the
target language.

In Fourth grade, students have been busy writing their first journal entry,
reviewing time telling and learning about action verbs. They will be working
on their end-of the unit project “Mi Día” (My Day), which encompasses a
description of their day - using full sentences in the target language.  We
will then begin a unit on Mexico, Central America and the Spanish-Speaking
Caribbean Islands.

¡FELIZ DIA DE SAN VALENTIN! (Happy Valentine’s Day)

where they can experience some of the atmosphere we are trying to recreate in
class, we can recommend:
