Winter activities – Spanish Fun
Monday, January 23rd, 2012Suffering with cabin fever? Oh no! I wanted to share some of the activities we are currently using in the classroom with you to help you beat the winter and bring the fun inside your classroom or home!The first topic I wanted to share with you is the house!
We share the basic house vocab:
House – Casa Cuarto- bedroom Sala – living room Cocina – kitchen Baño – bathroom
Table – mesa Chair- silla Sofa – sofá Bed – cama
We used flashcards to show the vocabulary, made into a memory game! Children all ages love memory games!
We sing the House rap © Claudia Krusch (pointing to the parts of the house, the children love it!)
La casa, la casa, la casa tiene un piso, un piso, un piso, la casa tiene un piso
La casa, la casa, la casa tiene una puerta, una puerta, una puerta, la casa tiene una puerta
que abre y cierra, que abre y cierra, la casa tiene una puerta
La casa, la casa, la casa tiene una ventana, ventana, ventana, la casa tiene una ventana
La casa, la casa, la casa tiene un techo, un techo, un techo, la casa tiene un techo
Casa Tag- they will tag the part of the house, after you say the name, I give rewards for each correct answer.
Doll House Fun – even the boys have fun, because I brought some legos and we populated the house, they needed to place the doll or lego in a room and tell me the name of the room! Sooo much fun!
Legos were also used to build the favorite room of the house. Below are some pics of the amazing job they did!
We add the winter vocabulary and placed cotton and fake rain the “house” coloring page we used!
One of the students who is 6 worked on so many details in the room, it looked like an architect did it! Children never cease to amaze me!
Hope you enjoyed our activities and that you will use them and share your experience here on our blog!
