Kindergarten Spanish:
Last Friday's snow day was perfect timing-this week was all about nieve(snow). We acted out weather expressions like hace frio(it's cold) and esta nevando(it's snowing), and pretended to make a bola de nieve(snowball) which we turned into an hombre de nieve(snowman). We read Emily's Snowball by Elizabeth Keown, played color bingo (nieve is blanco) and made some paper nieve to decorate the ventanas in our classroom.
B1-2 Technology:
After Type to Learn Jr and a review of homerow keys/fingers, We watched a short youtube excerpt of The Snowman by Raymond Briggs. If you have never seen this beautiful video, please be sure to watch each part! Since there is no dialogue in the story, students imagined that they were the snowman and created a word document saying where they lived, what they ate, what they liked/hated, etc. We saved these in our folders(always a challenge) so we can add some clipart next week.
3-4 Technology:
Because of missed classes, only Tues. and Wed. were new-we let everyone else catch up. The new classes had an extra class to explore the cyberchase quests, a good lesson in patience, observation, critical thinking while having fun solving math and language arts challenges. We also had fun seeing the voki comments on my cyber challenge-keep them coming!
