MERRY CHRISTMAS—FELIZ NAVIDAD!

During the month of December, the students cut, colored, and learned some new vocabulary in Spanish. The new vocabulary that students learned to say were words such as frosty, mittens, left, right, nose, mouth, and eyes. During the month of December students also learned the lyrics of some Christmas songs such as Feliz Navidad. Also, some students learned what posadas and aguinaldo navideño are. Posadas are the reenactments of Mary and Joseph in Bethlehem searching for shelter for Mary to give birth. After the reenactment, children are given bags of candy and small toys. These bags with candy inside are called aguinaldos navideños.
