In First Grade, students are making paper sombreros and dancing
the Mexican hat dance. We will learn vocabulary related to la
familia (the family). Some classes will act out the story of Los
Tres Osos(The Three Bears). In Second Grade, students worked
hard on a clothing (la ropa) and seasons (las estaciones) unit.
We have begun a unit based on farm animals, and will enjoy the
story called Los cuatro cantantes de Guadalajara(The Four
Singers of Guadalajara). In Third Grade, some classes are
learning body parts vocabulary in Spanish, and are concluding
with the exciting Monstruo Locoproject. Other classes are
beginning a unit onlacomida(food). In Fourth Grade, classes are
working on a clothing unit, which concludes with a project
entitled “Mi Clóset Ideal” (My Ideal Closet). If you are
interested in taking your children to a Mexican restaurant where
they can experience some of the atmosphere we are trying to
recreate in class, we can recommend: JALAPEÑOS GRILL- Walpole
