Casa, Casita

Recently, in a conversation about "counting your blessings" an acquaintance told me about homes she had helped build in Mexico for families in need. They measured 12 feet by 12 feet. It gave me great pause and spurred me to look around for some pictures of homes around the world. I'll be sharing these photos with my classes as we learn new vocabulary about houses (names of rooms, household furniture and objects) and use them as a point of reference for simple interviews. I hope your kids will want to talk with you about their observations!
