spanish class

On Friday, Kristen and Lyla engaged the children in song and movement. They shared an alphabet book about Guatemala, talking about the importance of traditional crafts and art. With an array of colorful materials, Kristen modeled making a Guatemalan worry doll; a doll to tell your worries to and then to hide, ensuring your worries will be forgotten. The children worked carefully on the oval rug and loved the experience. GK suggested that making worry dolls should be a new choice for the afternoon - and it was. Once again, Spanish Class was the highlight of our week!
