La Ropa

The past couple of weeks we have been talking about la ropa, or clothes. Students had a chance to create their own outfit using new vocabulary and even got to dress up in crazy clothes and describe their outfit. Students sang a song about clothing vocabulary and learned how to describe clothing. We learned that in English you would say "a red shirt" and in Spanish you would say "camisa roja" or shirt red. Ask your child about his/her outfit at home. Next week we will start talking about Las Posadas, a Christmas celebration in Spanish speaking countries.
