🎶✏️ Dancing, drawing, and learning letter sounds!
Our kindergarten students practiced letter-sound connections in Spanish language arts with a fun musical activity! Students danced around chairs labeled with letters. When the music stopped, they grabbed a pencil and drew something beginning with that letter’s sound. 🔤🎨
What a fun way to get moving, review, and learn! 💙

🎶✏️ ¡Bailando, dibujando y aprendiendo los sonidos de las letras!
¡Nuestros estudiantes de kínder practicaron la relación entre las letras y sus sonidos con una divertida actividad musical en su clase de español! Bailaron alrededor de sillas marcadas con letras. Cuando la música se detenía, tomaban un lápiz y dibujaban algo que comenzara con el sonido de esa letra. 🔤🎨
¡Qué manera tan divertida de moverse, repasar y aprender! 💙
