La Lectura

This week we not only celebrated the joy of reading with Dr. Seuss’ fun filled activities, but also the joy of writing. Students got to share with the class their argumentative writing pieces they worked so hard on. We also continued with our regular literacy routines leaning about idiomatic expressions and spelling words with letters not found in the English language! Ask your child about this. They also learned about the difference between demonstrative pronouns and adjectives. To end our week, we read the biography of a very influential woman in Latin America, Frida Kahlo, the challenges she had to face throughout her life and the significant contributions to art. All in all, we had a full week!
