What we are learning?
Dear Parents,
We hope you all have a wonderful week. This week it is our last week of our Animal Kingdom theme. Children will review what they have learnt in the last weeks regarding animals.
We will also continue working on motor and sensorial activities related to this theme, so children can continue learning through fun experiences while keeping strengthening gross and fine motor skills, language and socio-emotional skills. Some activities children will enjoy are as follows:
Pretend to feed animals.
Classify animals by color and size.
Jump with one foot.
Grab objects using tweezers.
Sing songs related to the theme.
Thank you for letting us play such an important role in your child’s life and we hope you have a great weekend.

Song of the Week
Song #1- Animales de la Granja
Mi abuelita tiene una granja bella
Con animalitos y flores muy bellas,
Ahora este jueguito de imitar sonidos
Tú lo haces primero y luego tu amiguito
(Repetir 2x)
El perrito ladra (sonido)
El gato maulla (sonido)
El gallito canta (sonido)
La vaca estornuda (sonido)
El conejo salta
El caballo trota
Y los pajaritos la canción entonan (Repetir 2x)
Song #2 - Animales de la Selva
Los animales que hay en la selva,
Tú los vas repetir,
Algunos gordos, otros muy altos
Igual nos vamos a divertir.
El elefante que está muy grande
Y la jirafa que alta es
Y el monito que salta y salta
El cocodrilo… me va a morder
Los animales…
Es un león que esta enojón
Es la serpiente que es muy decente
Y la tortuga come lechuga
Y el ratón (donde está el ratón?)
Ya se escondió
Los animales…
Poems
Rhyme #1
Coco, coco, cocodrilo
En el río esta tranquilo.
Rhyme #2
Ele, ele, elefante
En la trompa lleva un guante.
