Blog Theme: A World of Colors

Week: From 02/19/2018 to 02/23/2018

What we are learning? 

Dear Parents, 

We hope you all have a wonderful week. This is the last week of our wonderful subject “A World of Colors”. This week children will continue being encouraged to cultivate love for nature through observation of images of nature while listening to music related to this theme. Children will also learn the concept of up and down and learn new words related to nature. 

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. One of the activities they will enjoy is doing puzzles. Children will try to do 3 pieces puzzles this week. 

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 

Buenos días ya salió el sol

Miro hacia el cielo, las nubes de algodón

Buenas noches, la luna salió 

Muchas estrellitas luceros de amor.

Estrellas, planetas 

Luna y sol

Cuida nuestra tierra y llénala de amor

Poems

El sol tiene frío 

No quiere salir

Oculto entre las nubes

Se ha puesto a dormir
