This Week/Esta Semana 2nd-3rd


Week of December 14th

We are reading the story La princesa y el sapo, The Princess and the Frog. In our tale, which was more closely based on the Brothers Grimm original version, the frog is thrown up against a wall before he becomes a prince again. Since we're talking about princesses, we'll also play our "Princess and the Pea" counting game.

I hope you have a very Merry Christmas! ¡Feliz Navidad!
