¡Noticias de Alicia!

¡Saludos a todos; familia, amigas, y amigos! Greetings to all! In Spanish class, we have been practicing las formas (the shapes). We read Formas by Scholastic and identified and named basic geometrical shapes using the Spanish vocabulary. Can you guess what shape these words represent?

 

círculo

óvalo

triángulo

rectángulo

cuadrado

rombo o diamante

estrella

corazón

 

To reinforce our learning, we played the “What’s missing” game. I began by displaying three different shapes. Using a small blanket, I covered all three and pulled one out. The object of the game was for the Kindergarteners to figure out which shape was missing and say it in Spanish. These Kindergarteners were amazing! It wasn’t long before I needed to add more shapes into the game to make it more challenging. Go ahead. Try it at home and see for yourselves how smart they are.

 

¡Hasta pronto!

 

Paz,

Alicia
