Ellie La elefantita creativa

Si tus alumnos son como los míos, todavía necesitan mucha practica en escribir una historia en secuencia. Me he dado cuenta que el uso de organizadores gráficos hace toda la diferencia porque les permite organizar sus ideas y los obliga a utilizar sus palabras (y el espacio para escribir) cuidadosamente. 

La historia de Ellie es una hermosa forma de repasar esta habilidad. Me encantó el mensaje y claro, la podemos utilizar para seguir practicando la secuencia. 

Este libro nos cuenta la historia de un zoológico que está a punto de cerrar. Todos los animales intentan hacer algo, utilizando sus talentos, para salvar su hogar.

Ellie tiene problemas encontrando su talento pero al final de la historia lo encuentra y logra salvar el zoológico. 

Puedes encontrar el libro aquí.

Puedes utilizar esta actividad junto con esta historia para que tus alumnos sean los mejores en escribir la secuencia de una historia.

Topito terremoto - ¡Vamos a leer!

¿Alguna vez has tenido a Topito Terremoto en tu clase? ¡Estoy segura que sí! Te aseguro que esta hermosa historia te recordará a uno (o tal vez más de uno) de tus estudiantes.

Topito Terremoto me recordó a un estudiante en cuanto leí las primeras páginas. Me encantó el mensaje de este libro y pronto lo leeremos en mi clase. Te aseguro que las ilustraciones y la lección de la historia te van a gustar a ti también.

 Topito Terremoto es un poco travieso y le cuesta trabajo estar quieto...

Los papás de Topito deciden buscar ayuda. Cuando Topito Terremoto conoce a Brenda, ella sabe inmediatamente lo que él necesita. 

Tantos malos comentarios acerca de su comportamiento, llevan a Topito a tener un mal momento. Pero Brenda le enseña acerca de encontrar nuestra PASIÓN. 

La mejor parte del cuento es cuando Topito encuentra su pasión. 

Después de hablar acerca del comportamiento de Topito y de aceptar a las personas aun cuando no se comportan igual que nosotros, hablaremos de la palabra PASIÓN.

No estoy segura si alguien alguna vez ha hablado con mis alumnos acerca de encontrar lo que mas nos gusta hacer: nuestra pasión. ¡Definitivamente será nuestro tema de conversación la próxima semana! 

Este libro ofrece muchos temas y lecciones que puedes discutir con tus alumnos. ¡A mí me encantó! 

Puedes encontrar el libro AQUÍ

Utilizaremos esta actividad para hablar de nuestra pasión. 

Puedes descargarla GRATIS aquí y utilizarla con tus alumnos.

Mi maestra es un monstruo - ¡Vamos a leer!

When I was teaching second and third grade (and even now that I teach Kinder) it was difficult for my students to realize on their own that sometimes the feelings of a character might change throughout the story.

I received this book in my Booklandia order last month and I immediately realized this cute book was perfect to teach that skill.

It begins with a little boy telling us his teacher is a monster!

One day, he has a shocking experience! He runs into his teacher at the park.

After a series of events his feelings about his teacher begin changing <3

And the perspective he had about his teacher changes as well...

You can use this FREEBIE with this book to teach how a character's feelings change in a story.

Vamos a Leer! Los pingüinos adoran los colores

Hola! What I'm about to show you is one of the CUTEST read alouds EVER!!!! I feel in love with this book as soon as I saw the cover. Once I read the story I knew I had to have it. Los pingüinos adoran los colores is perfect for the first week of kindergarten. I love how colorful it is (obviously). It's simple to read, the images are absolutely ADORABLE, and it will allow me to go over a very important lesson in a dual language classroom: COLORS!!!

When I taught dual language kindergarten for the first time, I quickly learned I was very mistaken to assume all my kids knew their colors. For some it was easy to recognize them, but others (specially my non-Spanish speakers) needed some extra help. I decided then and there a lesson on colors the first day/week of kindergarten is a MUST, and it's even more important in a dual language setting. \

You can grab a copy of this book HERE. 

This year I will use this cute story to review colors, my color posters in Spanish, and the FREEBIE at the end of this post. 

The story is basically about 6 penguins who want to surprise their mom and they decide to use paint to create a lil something for her...and of course... they end up making a huge mess (momma penguin doesn't seem to mind though) 

I'm sure your students will LOVE this story. Here's a FREEBIE for you to use this with. I've included an English and a Spanish copy :)

Please, Mr. Panda - Vamos a leer!

You walk into Barnes & Noble, Target (or anywhere really) and you go straight to the children's books section...trying to find books for your students in Spanish but there's only a few and not really anything you want/need. You glance at the English section and  you wish it was that easy for you to find books! Sound familiar? 

I bet it does if you're a bilingual/ESL/dual-language teacher!

Don't get me wrong. I love teaching in Spanish but all the time I see these amazing ideas on Pinterest using the best books out there and then it hits me... the activity is in English! UGH!!!

Great news is I will be sharing with you some books and ideas that you can use in your Spanish elementary class. Since I will be teaching kindergarten this year I will try to keep my ideas closer to k-2 but maybe someday I'll share some of my ideas for the upper grades :) 

And most importantly! I will most definitively try to give you a link from Amazon, Barnes and Noble or Target so you can purchase your book online! Searching will be way easier for you!

Today's book is one I plan to use on the first day (or week) of school. It is one of the best ones I have found to teach my kids about the word PLEASE.

It starts out with this sweet 'grumpy' panda and a box of donuts. He runs into many friends and offers them a donut but all he gets are rude responses and decides not to give them a donut.

Until he finds a cute little friend who says PLEASE! 

This book is simple, to the point and perfect for a back to school manners lesson! Plus the text is in English AND Spanish! 

As I promised, here is a FREEBIE you can use with your kids to go along with this book:)

You can find this book on Amazon and Barnes and Noble. 

Have a great school year!!
