Curriculum
Bible: This week we learned about Palm Sunday. We talked about the power behind Jesus entering in on a donkey and the people expecting a king. We will continue to learn about the events of Holy Week and add them to a timeline this coming week. Below is our new Bible verse:
“El ángel dijo a las mujeres: -No tengan miedo; sé que ustedes buscan a Jesús, él que fue crucificado. No está aquí, pues ha resucitado, tal como dijo. Vengan a ver el lugar donde lo pusieron.” Mateo 28:5-6
“The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.” Matthew 28:5-6
Literacy: This week we talked about reflexive verbs. This kind of verb is used to express that one does an action to oneself. Often they are used when we talk about routines. For example, I get myself dressed, I brush my teeth, I wash my hands.
