La casa – Come inside!
Tuesday, May 22nd, 2012This week we will be sharing house vocabulary and I am very excited to be sharing our activities with you!
We will be looking at a house as we enter the amazing world of different types of houses for older children and a house as we know for younger one! We will chat about their favorite part of the house! Using basically this vocabulary list and me gusta:
- basement: el sótano
- bathroom: el baño, el cuarto de baño, el retrete
- bedroom: el dormitorio
- closet, wardrobe: el armario, el ropero
- courtyard: el patio
- den, study: el estudio
- dining room: el comedor
- entryway: la entrada
- family room: la estancia, el cuarto de estar
- garage: el garage, la cochera
- kitchen: la cocina
- living room: la sala de estar, el salón
- room: el cuarto
We will then, build a house with Legos and they will show me where the ventana is, la puerta, etc.
We will use shapes to make another house together, using their spacial skills to fit the shapes into the frame given to them. I use the Discovery Toy shapes and a House Page.
We read the book

I don’t show all the pages and just address vocabulary seen in class, the book is a little long for younger ones and a 30/45min class.
We also watch el Oso en la casa azul:

They listen to the song as we talk about La Cocina.
We also play tag and they will have to tag the parts of the house. They love that!
I hope you enjoyed our class and that you share it with your students or little ones!
