¡Bienvenidos a la escuela en el hogar!

En todos los rincones del país, e inclusive del mundo, estamos viviendo una situación única. Las guarderías, escuelas, oficinas y comercios están cerrados y muchos de nosotros estamos en casa en cuarentena, una práctica crucial en estos momentos inciertos.

Los padres son los primeros maestros del niño.

Muchos padres se preguntarán "¿qué puedo hacer para continuar apoyando el aprendizaje de mis hijos? Y ¿cómo lo hago? ... no soy maestro ni experto en temas de educación."

El Cox Campus le puede ayudar en estos momentos difíciles. Con nuestro apoyo Ud. puede continuar fomentando el desarrollo de sus hijos, porque, después de todo, los padres son los primeros maestros del niño.

El Cox Campus está aquí para apoyarle.

Miss Diana les da la bienvenida y explica los recursos que el Cox Campus ofrece.

¿Listos para comenzar?

Seleccione un tema de interés para su niño, tal vez, la primavera, los animales o la familia.

Cada tema tiene la lectura de un cuento relacionado e ideas de actividades muy sencillas que Ud. puede llevar a cabo en su hogar. No hacen faltan muchos materiales o juguetes.

Temas de interés:
Visítenos de nuevo para ver nuevas actividades y recursos.
Ideas para su familia en estos tiempos de cuarentena

Trate de mantener una rutina consistente durante estos tiempos para facilitar la dinámica en casa.

Convierta las rutinas diarias en oportunidades para desarrollar el lenguaje, la lectura y la escritura.

Haga las comidas en familia para promover el diálogo y las conversaciones con los niños, usando lenguaje rico.

Fortalezca el uso del primer idioma (el idioma del hogar).

Pida ayuda a los niños en las tares de limpieza y preparación de alimentos (de acuerdo a la edad) y use estas oportunidades para reforzar conceptos matemáticos y de lenguaje.

Deje que sus hijos e hijas hablen sobre sus sentimientos y ayúdeles a comprender la situación empleando un lenguaje de acuerdo a su edad.

A la hora de dormir, lean libros, cuenten cuentos, o canten canciones que promuevan su cultura y su primer idioma.

No hay mal que por bien no venga ...

Es cierto que atravesamos momentos difíciles, pero el estar juntos en casa nos brinda la oportunidad de pasar más tiempo con nuestros niños. Cada uno de estos momentos contribuye al aprendizaje de su hijo.

¿Sabía Ud. que una base sólida en el primer idioma o idioma del hogar contribuye significativamente al aprendizaje del inglés, o de un segundo idioma?

Todo lo que su niño aprende en su primer idioma le ayuda a adquirir conocimientos y habilidades en inglés. Lo importante es HABLAR, LEER Y JUGAR juntos, usando muchas palabras en cualquier idioma.

Quien sabe leer y escribir, a todas partes puede ir.

Todo niño tiene el derecho de aprender a leer. El camino que lleva a ser buen lector comienza en la temprana edad, en esos momentos diarios en que los niños comparten con los adultos importantes en su vida.

A través de recursos totalmente gratis, el Cox Campus apoya a los adultos, incluyendo a los padres, para que todos se sienten capacitados y listos a apoyar el desarrollo infantil, especialmente en el área del lenguaje y la comunicación temprana.

Comience con nuestro primer tema: la familia

Kids can learn to manage their emotions and work on social skills.

You can help your child with social-emotional learning by playing fun games at home.

There are lots of simple games you can play during everyday activities.

Many schools have started teaching kids how to do things like cope with feelings, set goals, and get along with others. It's called social-emotional learning. You can help your child work on these skills at home, too.

Here are a handful of activities that can help your child manage emotions and work on social skills - and have some fun with you along the way. These games are very low-tech. And all are designed to fit easily into daily routines.

1. Starfish and tornadoes

Try playing this game at different times of day, and help your child describe the energy levels. For example, if you play this game before dinner, you can say, "You have so much energy, I bet you could run up and down the stairs five times before I finish cooking!"

Keep in mind: Self-awareness can help kids build a skill called self-regulation. This skill is about managing your internal energy. It helps kids manage their emotions and their body movements during tough situations. It also helps them pay attention and learn.

The goal: To help kids practice observing what's going on around them. Picking up on social cues helps kids get their needs met and understand the perspective of others.

Help your child connect these observations with choosing how to behave. For example, when the swings are crowded, your child may decide to go on the slide first.

To help your child come up with ideas, comment whenever you notice your child's positive behaviors: "You just offered to teach your sister a nursery rhyme. Let's talk for a second about what kind of person you're being right now."

Also, you can buy these kinds of cards or find templates online. But kids might like making the cards themselves.

How to play: When you and your child can't agree, use the tune of "This Old Man" to sing these lines: "You want this. I want that. How can we both get what we want?" Then brainstorm solutions and choose the best idea for right now. For example, if your child is demanding to bake cookies at 8 a.m., the best solution might be to wait two hours so you can bake when the baby is napping.

5. Taking turns taking charge

Key takeaways

Simple, fun games can help kids learn to cope with feelings, set goals, and get along with others.

Self-regulation helps kids manage their emotions and their body movements.

Praising good behavior often leads to more of it.

As we all adjust to the current situation brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, it is important that we create safe, supportive, and engaging spaces for learning at home. Think about these four elements-your readiness and your child's experience of safety, support, and engagement-like building a house:
As you read through these resources, remember: Every family is different. Everyone's individual circumstances are different. Everyone brings their unique set of strengths to address life's challenges. The information we are sharing here is designed to be flexible and adapted in the ways that work best for you.

Begin with a solid foundation: make sure that YOU are ready to support your child's academic, social, and emotional learning. First, take care of yourself and make sure you have the capacity to support your child. You are the foundation and everything you do to take care of yourself will strengthen that foundation.

How You Can Be Ready to Support Your Child (PDF)
Cómo estar listos para apoyar a su niño (PDF)

Next, create a space that is emotionally safe and supportive-just as walls and a roof provide safety and support for a house. Children cannot learn when they are anxious or worried because these emotions trigger the stress response system and that affects working memory, attention, and concentration. Make sure that your child is learning in an emotionally safe space so that your child can tap into the parts of their brain that are responsible for learning.

How You Can Create an Emotionally Safe Space (PDF)
Cómo crear un espacio seguro desde el punto de vista emocional (PDF)

Safety goes hand-in-hand with a supportive atmosphere. This means providing the warmth, empathy, and encouragement your child needs as they learn new things in a new setting (at home). As we get used to all the newness-new settings, new technology (or lack thereof), and new experiences-children need reassurance and they need to know that you are there to help them.

Cómo crear un espacio que propicie el aprendizaje (Segunda parte: Apoyo en el aprendizaje, PDF)

Finally, add in the doors and windows that make learning fun because this will help them stay engaged in their learning. Children are wired to learn and explore, and they often do this by being introduced to new and interesting things. As your child adapts to learning at home, you can encourage your child to use their natural curiosity and creativity by helping them be aware of their own world so what they learn is relevant and meaningful to them.

How You Can Help Your Child Actively Engage in Learning (PDF)
Cómo ayudarle al niño a participar de manera activa en el aprendizaje (PDF)

Remember that each of these elements are really important when building positive conditions for learning at home. The positive conditions that you create will give your child what he or she needs to succeed. In fact, positive conditions for learning will not only help your child with learning at home right now, it will also help everyone in your home no matter what is going on in the world around us.

In the coming weeks, we will continue to add new information, strategies, things to look for (in other words, what you can expect as normal behavior during these stressful times), and resources that have more information. We will also describe developmental differences to be aware of (for example, what this looks like for a younger child compared to a teenager). This information will help you create safe, supportive, and engaging spaces for learning at home, both now and in the future.

Spanish number games build skills and confidence with important vocabulary. Play these Spanish number games with your students to give them the repeated exposure and practice they need to use numbers in their new language.

Spanish Classroom Games with Numbers

The effectiveness of Spanish number games depends on students hearing and saying the words. Students can conceptualize and manipulate numbers because they know them in English, but they need to connect them to the Spanish sounds. It is important to structure the language in Spanish number games so they are not playing mentally in English.

You can also check out all our Spanish vocabulary games grouped by theme.

Below you will find Spanish number games for different ages and levels, from counting and number recognition to addition and multiplication. None of these activities require special materials, although you can print or buy Spanish word dice if you like. You can find these Spanish word dice on Amazon.

Teachers use many of the resources on Spanish Playground with younger students, but you can use many of these Spanish games for high school students or adults. We have included Spanish vocabulary activities for numbers for a range of ages. Many of the Spanish vocabulary games below can also be used with other themes and concepts.

Spanish Counting Games
Scroll down for Spanish number games for older students.
Spanish Numbers 1-20 Video

This video is a great way to let kids hear the numbers 1-20 in Spanish and count along.

Mastering numbers in another language is much more than learning to count, but counting is a good place to start. If you are working with preschoolers or the early grades, try these Spanish number games once kids are familiar with the pronunciation.

Before we do other activities, I sing counting songs with my preschoolers. Singing they learn correct pronunciation and also the sequence of numbers to apply to counting objects and later to written numbers. Find 5 Spanish counting songs for preschoolers here.

These preschool Spanish activities include counting games and also number recognition activities.

Fill the cup - Each player has a cup and small objects such as legos or counters. Players roll the die and put that number into the cup. The first to fill the cup wins. As a variation, fill the cups to start and work backwards, removing objects. The first person to empty the cup wins.

Feed the monster - Put a monster face on a box or make one out of a plastic cup like my monsters below. Kids each have pompoms or paper balls. Roll dice or draw cards to feed that number to the monster. This also makes a good cooperative game where students work together to feed the monster.

Board games - Play simple board games where you count the spaces and move game pieces. There are many printable games for preschoolers online. This Spanish greetings game is a good example. There are also printable board games to practice number recognition like this one from Life Over C's.

Hole punch counting - Write numbers on squares of colored paper or index cards. Kids punch holes in the paper to match the written number.

String beads on pipe cleaners - Mark pipe cleaners with numbers on sticky notes. Kids string that number of beads on the pipe cleaner.

Counting cards - Try these printable counting cards from Powerful Mothering. There are also versions in English and French.

Tira y tacha - Write the numbers 1-6 (or 1-12 if you are using 12-sided dice) on a card for each player. Players roll a die and cross out that number. The first person to cross out all the numbers wins.

Missing number sequences - Try one of the many missing number activities like these from K5 Math. Kids count and write in the missing number to complete the sequence.

Count by 5 (or another number) - Kids stand in a circle. Count around the circle and the child is number 5 sits down. The next child starts over with 1. The last child standing is the winner.

Number groups - Students move around a circle to music. When the music stops, the teacher calls out a number and students run to form groups of that number. This is a traditional game in Latin America called Pares y Nones. You can read a description and see a video in our list of 12 Traditional Spanish Games.

Number ordering - Give students 1 or more sets of number cards 0-9. Call out series of numbers and students put their cards in the order they hear.

Race to the board - Write numbers scattered on the board. Divide the class into teams and call out a number. Students race to be the first to circle the number.

Sticky-note search - Write numbers on sticky notes and hide them around the room. Students search for numbers, say them aloud when they find them and create a number line with the post-its. Have one or two students search at a time.

Spanish Number Games for Elementary Students

Again, students have to hear and say the words in these Spanish number games to make them effective. Structure the language you want students to use by providing sentence frames. The repetition of these sentences (changing the number of course) is an important part of language learning.

The frame you give students will depend on the game. For example, if students are rolling two dice and adding the number together, give them the frame (número) más (número) igual a (suma). Make sure they say the sentence every time they roll!

With a few groups of older students playing Spanish number games, I have made the rule that if they do not say the sentence before they place their maker they lose their turn.

Throw two - Students take turns throwing two dice and adding or subtracting the two numbers and coloring in the answer on the board. The one with the most answers wins. Here are two free Throw Two boards in Spanish from AulaPT.

Four in a row - Play a printable version of Four in a Row, similar to Connect Four, to practice Spanish numbers and math skills. You can make them like this one on Maths Blog, a Four in a Row with math problems on the board. I make mine where students roll two dice and add them together. The first person to have 4 in a row wins.

Download 2 of my Spanish Four in a Row addition games here.

Note, the number of times a digit appears on my boards is based on the odds of rolling that number. Because there is only one roll that will give you a 2 and only one roll that will give you a 12, those numbers only appear once on my boards. My class time is short, and I do not want the game to take forever. I want someone to win! The Spanish number practice happens when they roll and say the two numbers and the sum, which they do each turn. My boards are designed so that the numbers they are likely to roll more often appear more often. If students finish quickly, they can always play again.

Multiplication grid - I love this multiplication grid game from Teach Beside Me. It reinforces the concept of multiplication. Also, because kids are coloring the squares, the pacing is perfect for language learners.

Roll to 100 (or to 50) - Whether you call it Race to 100 or Roll to 100, it's an excellent way to practice numbers in Spanish. Use any hundreds chart as a game board. Students throw two dice, add them and move that many spaces. The first player to reach 100 wins.

Guess the number - Replace the faces in Guess Who with numbers. Students ask "¿Es el número mayor que ___?, ¿Es el número menor que ___?, ¿El número está entre __ y __?"

First to answer - Each pair of students has a deck of cards with the face cards removed. Divide the cards between the players. Then, they both turn over a card at the same time. The first one to add the two numbers keeps the cards. With this game, because speed matters, students only say the answer in Spanish.

Beach ball toss - Write numbers on a beach ball and toss it. Students catch it and look at the number their thumb is touching. They add that number to the previous number and toss the ball to someone else.

Addition and subtraction with manipulatives - Using manipulatives gives you the opportunity to practice colors, shapes and other vocabulary as well as numbers. Take a look at this Counting and Addition Activity Tray from The Imagination Tree and adapt the ideas for the size of your group.

Classic Spanish Number Games

These classic games use numbers and can be played in any language. Again, you want to make sure kids are hearing and/or saying the numbers. You can also adapt many of these games to play with words, making them fun Spanish vocabulary games for different themes.

Bingo - You can play bingo using calling out numbers, or calling out simple math problems. The boards can have digits or number words. There are many free bingo card sets online and tools for making and printing your own.

Dominoes - Play the classic game, or try something new with these fun manipulatives. Upper Elementary Snapshots has a list of 10 Math Games to Play with Dominoes.

War - Each student turns over a card and the bigger number wins. Be sure students are saying the numbers aloud. I play that the student with the higher card has to say the numbers and if they forget, the other player gets the cards.

Uno - The commercial game Uno is great for colors and numbers. My students have to use a full sentence with tener ( Tengo un tres rojo. No tengo una carta verde, No tengo un dos. etc) each time they play a card or draw. If they forget, they have to draw an extra card.

Tic-tac-toe - Put math problems in the spaces. Students read the problem aloud and solve it to put their marker in the space.

Solitaire - There are many classic solitaire games. Students name the number and color each time they move a card.

Spanish number games are a fun and effective way to learn important vocabulary. Choose games that would be easy for your students to play in English, so they can focus on absorbing language. After all, a review of basic math facts is always a good idea. Do you have favorite Spanish number games? Please share in the comments.

Teaching children numbers in Spanish is fairly easy, so you might wonder why you would ever put a young child in front of a computer screen to play a game to learn to count. However, online Spanish number games or apps can be a useful supplement to hands-on learning for several reasons.

Spanish number games provide exposure to native speaker pronunciation. Non-native speakers need to be sure their kids are hearing the numbers, and other key vocabulary, pronounced accurately so that they absorb and imitate the correct sounds.

Number games also expose children to additional language. They learn key math vocabulary like número (number), contar (count), siguiente (next), más (plus), and igual (equal). In addition, these games are intended for native speakers, so as kids listen to the instructions and play the game, they hear conjugated verbs in context and learn the vocabulary for the objects they are counting.

Often children who learn to count in a second language are memorizing the sounds, but are not really associating the sound with a number of objects. Many Spanish number games online let children practice one-to-one correspondence, so that they are learning the concept that the sound represents.

Finally, well-made Spanish number games are high-interest and hold a child's attention. This means kids play long enough to learn from the native speaker audio, the additional language in the game, and the presentation of math concepts.

Spanish Number Games

PBS offers a variety of number games in Spanish.

These games are very well made and will appeal to kids who are learning their numbers and basic number concepts. These are just a few of the Spanish number games available.

Revienta Burbujas - Kids click on the bubble to burst it and hear the number pronounced.

Conejitos de Paseo - Kids steer a car to pick up carrots for the rabbits. Each carrot is counted and the total number shows on the side.

Cuenta con Allie - Kids click on a number and get that many objects to count. Be sure to click on Allie so that she counts aloud each time. There is quite a bit of extra language in this game as Allie comments on the objects.

Cosechemos Vegetales - Kids click on vegetables to pick and count them. This game has lots of repetition. It also uses más (plus) and es igual a (is equal to), introducing kids to important math vocabulary. Kids will also learn vegetable vocabulary with this game.

Choca Esos Cinco - This game teaches children to count by fives.

You'll find other fun online Spanish activities from PBS. We all want to make sure screen time is valuable learning time, and PBS has engaging, quality games.
