We are learning Spanish with the Ukrainian folk tale "The Mitten" as retold by Jan Brett in this term of Jump Into Spanish (Term 1B).
Jump in the fun with us!
Today's words are:
la rueca | (lah roo-EH-kah) | the spinning wheel
la cesta | (lah SEHS-tah) | the basket
las agujas de tejer | (las ah-GOO-hahs deh teh-HEHR) | the knitting needles
los ovillos | (lohs oh-BEE-yohs) | the balls of yarn
el hilo | (ehl EE-loh) | the yarn, thread
las cerámicas | (lahs seh-RAH-mee-kahs) | the pottery
Make sure you find a picture or come up with an action to represent each word. THEN, as you repeat each word after me, make sure you are also pointing to the picture or saying the word out loud. This helps your brain really think in Spanish instead of translating from English to Spanish.
