We are already starting to work on fluency with these kids! I feel that we are much more advanced in terms of pacing and time lapse... That's how impactful having Spanish since Pre-K is! 💪 #proud #teacher #kindergarten #Spanish #Soar

Kicking off this new school year with a successful Open House and Meet the teacher day! 😄 I refurbished some areas to give my classroom a fresh look! #meettheteacher #OpenHouse #Kindergarten #TeacherLife #proud #DCSBetterTogether @dcsnc

[Felipe Santibanez Pereira @FelipeSPteacher]

I just wanted to proudly show my kids off! 👏 I was taking their last Running Records and they keep amazing me! I foresee a bright future! ⭐️ #proudteacher #kindergarten #spanish #DCSBetterTogether @dcsnc

[Felipe Santibanez Pereira @FelipeSPteacher]

It's great to see that all my hard work is paying off! 💪 I've always set high expectations, and these kids are doing amazing! I'm really proud of them! 😊 #Spanish #reading #kindergarten #proudteacher #DCSBetterTogether @dcsnc

Today every Spanish teacher at Southwood Elementary had to present something related to their home country with their class. My kids sang "Los Pollitos" 🐤 and then they chanted "Blanco, Azul y Rojo" 🇨🇱 You could really feel the energy there! #heritageday2022 #DCSBetterTogether

Celebrating Chilean Independence Day with our kids! 🇨🇱 @CatalinaOrtizS0 and I showed them our traditional dance "La Cueca", they could dance and sing some Chilean songs, chant our C-H-I, and eat some treats with our colors! ❤🤍💙 @dcsnc #DCSBetterTogether #Chile

[Felipe Santibanez Pereira @FelipeSPteacher]

More than ready for #MeetTheTeacher day! This year I added more areas so my kids will feel comfortable working in my classroom! Also, my new co-teacher @CatalinaOrtizS0 (from Chile) is already providing ideas, so she's doing amazing! 👏 Let's go! #DCSBetterTogether #OpenHouse

It's #LastDayofSchool, and it's time to reflect on all the process and work made with these kids. I'm glad and proud of them for seeing how much they have grown and learned during this year! I foresee a great future for them! 💪 #Kindergarten #teacher #DCSBetterTogether

@Angelica99921 @misssolesbee @ParticipateLrng In fact, that is not even the middle group 😅 That's why it's so important to have strong teachers at the beginning to build solid foundations. So upper grades teachers can completely focus on their contents, and not filling up holes and correct "previous mistakes"

Watching @FelipeSPteacher lead his @ParticipateLrng DL kindergarten classroom is like watching a master conductor lead an orchestra - so intentional, engaging & entertaining. These K students are flourishing! 🇨🇱👏🏼💯#unitingourworld

[Felipe Santibanez Pereira @FelipeSPteacher]

@Angelica99921 @CastiStephani Yep! I think that is the idea of the program... To bring diversity and show different countries and culture 👍

[Felipe Santibanez Pereira @FelipeSPteacher]

A #shoutout to my Co-teacher @CastiStephani for these beautiful "calaveritas" masks celebrating #DiaDeMuertos They're so colorful that show us how happy this day should be! And now they're part of our mural outside our classoom so everyone can see 😄 #DCSBetterTogether #teamwork

[Felipe Santibanez Pereira @FelipeSPteacher]

Today we celebrated Chile's birthday! 🎉 And three schools were connected in a video call! Every class had a Chilean teacher, had a Chilean character, shared a Chilean song, and shared the same passion! 🇨🇱 #chile @dcsnc @PESJackets @Valeskarriagada @salinasmura #BetterTogether

[Felipe Santibanez Pereira @FelipeSPteacher]

After days of really hard work with @Valeskarriagada, I can say that my classroom is ready to receive my kindergarteners! I have the areas ready to work in different centers! And of course, my cultural corner related to Chile! 🇨🇱 #chile #classroomdecor #DCSBetterTogether @dcsnc

[Felipe Santibanez Pereira @FelipeSPteacher]

@Angelica99921 These kids did amazing this year! They truly deserved this graduation! 🎓 And, we did our best for them as well... That is called #Motivation and #commitment 🙌

[Felipe Santibanez Pereira @FelipeSPteacher]

A #shoutout to @salinasmura for helping me with my cultural activity! 🇨🇱 She's given us lots of support, and we have learned so much from her! She's an awesome teacher, a book author, and she's is the kind of partner and colleague that you can count on! 👏 #chile #gratitude

[Felipe Santibanez Pereira @FelipeSPteacher]

Learning about the arachnids, their body parts and characteristics, our students made their own crazy spider puppets! 🕷️ It was a great opportunity to close the lessons in a fun and meaningful way! @Angelica99921 @ParticipateLrng #unitingourworld #SDG15 @TheGlobalGoals

[Felipe Santibanez Pereira @FelipeSPteacher]

Here you can find the strangest insects you'll ever see! Behold the Zetaco, Alucoso, and Lamapa! Our students created their own insects using different parts, and they named them using different syllables! 🐜 @ParticipateLrng #unitingourworld @Angelica99921 @TheGlobalGoals #SDG15

[Felipe Santibanez Pereira @FelipeSPteacher]

Starting to relate our contents to the #SDG15, our students learned about the butterfly life cycle and made a representation of it! 🦋 They used a stick, grains of rice, papers, and lots of colors! They had lots of fun! 😆 @ParticipateLrng #unitingourworld @Angelica99921

[Felipe Santibanez Pereira @FelipeSPteacher]

Our students took home their flowers that could changed colors! 🌼 They were excited to take notes of how the flowers reacted and changed day after day! It's always good a bit of realia to make a meaningful learning experience! @ParticipateLrng @Angelica99921 #unitingourworld
