Dear Parents,
 
We hope you are having a wonderful week. This week we are going to learn about a new topic “My family.” Through songs, games and other activities children will learn everything related to this topic.

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:

·         Identify members of the family in the pictures.

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 – Tengo una familia


Tengo una familia y es fenomenal
Mi papa me ama mi mama igual
Con mis hermanitos yo puedo jugar
Y mis abuelitos bailan sin cesar (x2)
Con este chachacha
La familia aprenderás
Respeto a papa amo mi mama

Mi abuelo y mi abuela felices están
Esta es mi familia, es mi dulce hogar.
Chachachacha amo a mi mama
Chachachacha amo a mi papa (x2)

Poems


Yo amo a mi familia
Y mi familia me ama
A mi.
