My Community and Me


Classroom: MariquitasBlog Title: My Community and MeWeek: October 28th, 2019 to November 1st, 2019

What are we learning?
Dear Parents,
We hope you are having a wonderful week. We are starting a new theme “My Community and Me.” For the next four weeks, children will learn about the community where they live, the community helpers, and the community public and private places.
This week, they will also be exploring the community they live in through songs, games and other activities. We have scheduled exciting activities related to this theme so children can continue learning through fun experiences. Each one of these activities will help to continue strengthening gross and fine motor skills, language and socio-emotional skills. Below you can find a summary of all activities during the week:
 

·         Observe images related to the new theme while trying to repeat words and pointing out.

·         Walk while trying to maintain balance.

·         Dance to the rhythm of the song of the week.

 
Thank you for letting us play such an essential role in your child’s life and we hope you have a great weekend.

On Monday of their week, the student of the week should bring a poster and a book created with family pictures, favorite books, sports, hobbies, animals and other interests.

Song of the Week – Comunidad


Conozco mucha, mucha gente en mi vida,
Que siempre ayuda con mucha alegría
Y si tú quieres conocer sus oficios
Jugando vamos a nombrarlos en un ratito
Es l enfermera, es el cartero
Es la maestra de Spanish for fun!
El policía y el bombero
Son los amigos que te cuidaran.
Conozco mucha…
Es el dentista y el granjero
El cocinero…delicias te hará
El carpintero y el arquitecto
Son los amigos que te ayudarán

Poems


                # 1
El cocinero mezcla los sabores
Tiene su cocina de ricos olores

# 2
El veterinario cura perros y pajaritos
Siempre está rodeado de animalitos
