Dear Members,
We’re proud to announce that we will be offering a free Spanish story time for children 2-6 years old at our West Deptford location this Saturday, July 18th, 9:30am. Children will hear the story, do a craft and sing a song. The story time will bring the amazing world of Spanish to children, giving them the exposure to a foreign language in a fun way!
We usually reduce the numbers of classes in the summer due to my schedule, so parents asked for a little more Spanish time for their littles and we listened! The event is free!
We look forward to seeing you there. CK Translations LLC – 1007 Mantua Pike S# 1 West Deptford, NJ 08096 almost in front of the new LA Fitness on R. 45.
Saludos,
Claudia Krusch

Parents have always asked me to include a summer class in our regular programs. Summer is a fun time, when children play, so teaching Spanish in the summer, means adding Spanish to fun activities children love!
I hope you enjoy my vocabulary list and suggestions:
El Sol – Sun
La Playa – Beach
La Sombrilla- the umbrella
La crema – the lotion
La arena – the sand
El Castillo- The castle
El Mar – The sea
El Calor- The heat
A few activities which can be used when teaching summer and beach themes are:
*Use colored sand and have them cover the word playa for example
*Buy precut fish craft and have them put it together, teaching fish and other sea animals
*Buy plastic fishing kit, they children will love to go fishing and learn about water and animals
*Beach Ball can be used to be passed, each student will need to say a beach word in Spanish when you stop the song
I also use some songs such as, vamos a la playa, la bamba, que calor to bring some flavor to the activities.
I hope you enjoyed my suggestions, please post your comments and suggestions.

A lot of the parents which come from families or are Brazilian have asked me to post vocabulary and suggestion of activities on different topics. This is the first of a series.
Spring Vocabulary:
Spring – primavera
Flower – flor
Spring colors- green – verde, purple- roxo pink- rosa, blue- azul, yellow- amarelo
Grass-grama
Garden-jardim
Bee- abelha

My favorite spring song: O Barquinho – Tom Jobim – This song always reminds me of spring in Brazil, but I don’t have a recording to offer to readers to check it out. Maybe in a Brazilian search engine.
Suggestion on activities:
1)Take your child to a garden or your backyard and show him/her the flowers, grass and bring the vocabulary on this list to life.
2)There is a children’s lullaby- O cravo brigou com a rosa….very nice, will put your child in a spring mood, right before bed: http://www.microvip.com.br/vipkids/ocravoearosa.htm. My son loves this song….the hard part was explain the flower names to him….cravo…..
If you are teaching your child how to read in Portuguese, spring vocabulary is great for asking the child to read the flower names, for example.
For more suggestions, information, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
I strongly advocate for introducing a second and many foreign language to children at early age, so it will be my pleasure to give any readers, any information to help them introduce or bring foreign languages to children.
Next posting will give some information on colors.
I hope you enjoyed it.
Tell us what you think!
