In October we learned about the family and Halloween. We started listing Spanish names of family members: mamá, papá, hermana, hermano, abuela, abuelo, tía, tío, prima, primo, etc. We sang songs about families and the children acted out family members’ roles.
We also learned about one of our fun fall holidays, Halloween, or Día de las brujas. We glued cotton balls onto paper to form un fantasma. We glued eyes and mouth to form una linterna de calabaza. We sang Escobita voladora and La brujita Tapita about brujas. We also got to play inside and outside a lot. We enjoyed playing with playdough, magnetic tiles, games like loteria y dominos. Outside we enjoyed the sandbox, the ride on toys and running up and down the hill.
Also, in October we welcomed Ms. Thracy to our team. You will get to know more about her in the upcoming days.
