¡Esta en una de mis épocas favoritas! Los huevos de plástico para las Pascua están por todos lados en el mercado. Una excelente oportunidad para comprar unos cuantos y encontrarles uso en la clase de español. A continuación les compartiré algunas ideas contándoles como los he usado en mis clases.
1. “Brain Breaks o “descansos mentales”
Es una manera para salir de la rutina y que los estudiantes escojan de manera sorpresiva el “brain break” o actividad de descanso mental. Pare esto necesitas haber enseñado los descansos mentales antes de imprimir la ficha con el nombre en el huevo de plástico. Les sugiero algunos cuantos. Por favor visita los enlaces para conocerlos.
La idea es esconder en el huevo de plástico una foto o material manipulativo que sea la respuesta de la adivinanza. Debes enumerar los huevos de plástico y las fichas con la adivinanza.
3. Los pollitos
Los huevos de plástico, especialmente los amarillos son perfectos para hacer pollitos. Simplemente necesitas marcadores permanentes. La foto muestra lo sencillo que es hacerlo. Enseña la canción “los pollitos”, imprime las letras de la canción, las pones dentro del pollito y listo. Es una actividad que se puede enviar a casa para que los niños canten la canción a su familia.
4. Organiza las oraciones, historias o palabras
Dependiendo del nivel de tus estudiantes, puedes contar tiras de papel con palabras u oraciones para que tus estudiantes las organicen. Estor huevos también pueden ser una herramienta útil para la construcción de palabras.
5. Los sentimientos
Esta es una de mis actividades favoritas. Dibuja una carita con una expresión sobre la tapa más grande del huevo de plástico. Escribe la palabra que va con la emoción. Mezcla los colores. Los estudiantes deben leer y organizar los huevos de acuerdo a la emoción y la palabra. Los puedes convertir en una competencia. Puedes tomar el tiempo y ver quien puede juntas los huevos en el menor tiempo posible.
This is a simple craft. To make this pollito (chick) you will need the following materials:
Plastic eggs
Permanent markers
Once you have your pollito ready, use the inside to send a message to the parents of your students. It could be an update of the class or simply sharing vocabulary and sentences related to the spring season.
I have been teaching the song “Los Pollitos” to my PreK classes. This is a great opportunity to send home the lyrics of the song inside the pollito for parents to sing along with their children.
Grab a copy of the song here make your pollitos and send it home!
Here is a version of the “Los Pollitos” song on YouTube!
Yes, it that time of the year when the Easter huevos (eggs) filled with candy are all over the place in the United States. I always love to use them in my classes to review colors in Spanish or hide small objects in them to have my students guess what’s inside.
This year I decided to challenge my third grade students by scrambling words they had to first organize to then be able to find what was inside the eggs. If you are ready to try this in your classes you will need plastic Easter eggs, Velcro, and tape. I have added a link to different vocabulary you can print, cut, laminate using clear tape, and stick to the egg using Velcro, place an object or small picture inside the egg and scramble the word. Only let the children open the egg after they have the word put together.

You can also divide the word by syllables and have the children create silly words by twisting the halves of the egg to line up the first half and last half of the word (see photo). They can even draw the silly creation later. For example, how about a “vato”, the result of mixing vaca and gato? Children eat this up, and it adds a nice dimension of fun to the classroom!
Enjoy,
