We continued working on the vocabulary for the parts of the body, focusing specifically on the parts of the face. Your child probably brought home a card with many parts of the face. By now they should be able to identify at least the nose (nariz: nah REES), eyes(ojos: OH hose) and mouth (boca: BOE kah).
In addition to last week's songs, today we sang a Whistlefritz song about the parts of the face:

Week 11: El cuerpo
We started this week by practicing how the children can respond if someone says "Buenos Días" to them. Each week we alternate between three "hello" songs that include how to exchange greetings, so the children should know this in the form of songs, but I want to be sure that they know that the song-language transfers to everyday conversation! We will continue to do conversational greetings in addition to our hello song(s) each week.
Today we worked with the Spanish for some parts of the body (cabeza, hombros, rodillas, pies, ojos, orejas, boca, nariz.) We sang songs:
Cabeza, hombros, rodillas, pies (the Spanish equivalent to Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes)
Recycled the Juanito, Cuando Baila song:
...and read De la cabeza a los pies, a wonderful Eric Carle book that has the children move body parts like different animals. This book held the attention of even the youngest Spanish classes, so this one is a keeper!
