In November we learned about the season of fall/el otoño and Thanksgiving/Día de acción de gracias. We talked about the weather getting colder and leaves falling off trees. We recited this poem about fall and acted out the different actions the leaves were doing: En otoño las hojitas de los árboles se caen, llega el viento, las levanta y empiezan a … bailar, cantar, correr, saltar… For Thanksgiving we made paper turkeys/pavos by gluing “feathers” and “faces” to paper turkey bodies.
Outside, the children really enjoyed playing in the sand box and riding on toys in the nice weather. Inside our classroom, they played a lot with building blocks, magnetiles and put together a long train track for the trains. We also finished learning about all the Spanish vocals and started our consonants with la letra D/d.
