Today, the other section class started learning their parts for the Christmas Concert. They learn Los Peces en el Rio. We used blue fabric to create water and the students danced through the fabric like fishes. That way they will remember the song by the environment we created in the classroom.

Today we worked on learning the Christmas Song, "Campanas sobre Campanas". We learned and practiced the words and then we started to learn dance movements to help the students remember the words. This will be performed at the Christmas Concert in December.

Today we completed a lesson on learning the beginning, middle, and end of a story. I taught the lesson through a book called "Just a Minute" That integrates Spanish and English! To test their understanding of the timeline of a story they drew on their white boards pictures of what they danced from the First thing, the middle of the story and then the end.

Creating (Energy)
Using the book as a

Assessment
On a white board
draw a four square dividing the board into four quadrants. Have the first
labeled as beginning, second two as middle, and last square as the end. The
students will draw a picture of what happened in the story for the beginning middle

fashion

After
they have explored with all the nouns, they will make a story about all the
nouns and put it in order.
Now
we will create a story with all these nouns! What character do we have first?
The Camel? What did the camel do? He used the key to open the door to the
ship…then who came?... Write the story on the board and then make a dance
about the story using the noun shapes that you used earlier.

first, then, then, then, and last.
