La contraseña secreta (secret password) to come into the classroom this week will

week creating very simple sentences using our “a” and “e” syllable
words i.e. “Ella sale.” “Pepe llega.”
In Math, we continue our formas geométricas (geometric
shapes) two month unit! This week we will be focusing on 3D
shapes and their attributes.

classroom rules:
1. Respetar a tus amigos y a las maestras (respect your
friends and the teachers)
2. Cuidarse (take care of yourself)
3. Cuidar las cosas del salón (take care of classroom and
everything in it!)
We will revise or add rules as necessary.
