We begin the month of February discussing the people in our families. Your student will draw a family portrait reflecting the family related vocabulary introduced each class day. Students will write about their family and present their portrait to the class. You can help your student practice at home throughout the course of your normal day, or take a few minutes to look at old photos, naming and describing family members. Also ask your student about the story Chooch y su perro Viejo. They read a story about a boy who loved to dance. We will work on the students learning how to recount the story verbally and then start to personalize the story, changing details of the story.
