Second Graders have been learning vocabulary centered on our theme of 'Mariposas' (Butterflies), working on full sentences including the all important word 'es' (is).... La mariposa es verde. (The butterfly is green), colors, and size words.... building simple full sentences is an early step in learning grammatical components of the language, albeit without the students knowing they are actually learning grammar. I am so proud of them!
We are also participating in Journey North's Symbolic Migration... an incredible program which mimics the real migration of the Monarch Butterflies to México. Check out their site to learn more!

We are tracking the monarchs as they migrate south, using Journey North's 'Peak Sightings' map... such a cool way to integrate Spanish, geography, and science!
