This week we continued our story about Brutus and his search for the perfect girlfriend. Because of Field Trips and Late Start, some classes are a little bit behind on the story, but everyone will be finished by next week! Have your child tell you what has happened in the story so far, and if Brutus has been able to find a solution to his problem!

This week we continued to watch and listen as Brutus searches for his "novia perfecta" (perfect girlfriend). He started by making a list of the characteristics he is looking for in a perfect girlfriend. So far he has not been successful in his search, but we are hopeful that his problem will be solved soon!
Below is the description that Brutus created for his perfect girlfriend. Have your child tell you what Brutus is looking for. Any guesses on who might fit the description? This week we spent time reviewing some of the most commonly used question words in Spanish. These are hanging in the front of our classroom and we use them frequently throughout the year during stories and class activities.
We also started working on our Identity Unit, where we will answer the questions; "Who am I?" and "How am I?". Before starting our story, students were introduced to some of the vocabulary we will be learning and we also discussed our goals for the unit:
This week we were introduced to some Spanish expressions that can be used to react during a conversation or situation. The students had fun practicing these new phrases by using them to respond to some wacky comments.
For some fun at-home practice, present your student with a statement or situation and ask them how they would react in Spanish. For example; "What would you say if you saw someone fall down?" or "What would you say if I told you I like brussel sprouts?" The wackier the better!
