"Las Plantas" - "The Plants"

“Beneficio de las plantas” – “Benefits of the plants”

Dear Ositos Parents :

We hope everybody had a great week. This week we will continue learning more about the plants and flowers. My goal for this week is teach the Ositos the benefits of the plants. Also we will discuss some of the benefits from plants we should learn to appreciate on a daily basis.

Song of the Week:

Cancion De Las Plantas

Cancion 1:

Una dia en el parque jugando estaba

Con mis amigos de Sff.

Mire hacia el suelo, vi algo paqueno

Las semilitia yo vi pasar

Yo la tome con mucho cuidado

Y en una taza con amor la sembre',

Con tierra y agua crecio mi plantita,

Y muchas flores yo vi nacer,

Cuida tu alrededor,

A las plantitas respecta,

Por un mundo mejor cuida la naturaleza

POEM 

POESIA

Semillita semillita

Que en la tierra se cayó

Dormidita dormidita

Rapidito se quedó.

Semillita semillita

Que con agua y luz del sol

Te convertiste en una plantita

Con muchas hojas y una flor.

Special Activity:

This week Osito Willy will visit with Houston and his family. I am sure Houston is very excited about having Osito Willy visit with him this week.

Thank you to William’s mother for her time spent last week with the Ositos teaching, sharing in activities and learning experiments with the plant.

Next week, Feb 23^rd – 26^th, we will have our “Art Fair”. Please enjoy with your family to observe your osito’s hard work and creativity.

Friendly Reminder:

This week we will begin the process of pre-reading the letter "Qq" with the sound, identification, writing with vowels to develop their Spanish vocabulary.

Also please assist with writing skills of letters and numbers of the week with your osito at home to develop their fine motor skills.

Parents, please be mindful of returning the notebooks each Friday to avoid 2 weeks of homework requested by your osito.

Have a wonderful week!
