Ms. Amparo & Ms. Silvia
Theme of the week: “How Things Work"
Week of May 4th – May 8th
Hello Sapitos Parents:
This is a new and exciting
theme that we will cover all month. Our children will be exploring many aspect
of this theme, such as: how things are made, how they have changed (from the
past to the present) and how they work. They will explore the marvelous world
of inventions and prepare for our Science Fair.
Our
goal for helping our children to understand the new theme is to provide them
with plenty of opportunities to develop their curiosity using their senses via hand-on-activities
- which is the best way children learn.
On
Friday 8th we will have a special celebration to honor the most important
person in our children’s life: their Mother.
The Sapitos are working hard to give their Moms a nice surprise.
Our
Sapitos will also learn this week, why “5 de Mayo” has become an occasion to
celebrate Hispanic culture in the United States.
As
May is “National Physical Fitness and Sports Month”, our children will be doing
more exercises and physical activities and, of course, you will get some tips
about this topic to do at home.
Tips from NHLBI (as a
part of the NIH and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services):
Walk whenever possible (take a family walk after dinner, make a Saturday
morning walk a family habit, go for a half-hour walk instead of watching TV).
Move more in your home (get your children to the yard to help you rake, weed
or plant, ask your children to help with active chores around the house).
Live actively (enroll your children in community sports teams or
lessons, do sit-ups in front of the TV and have a competition with your
children, play with your children at least 30 minutes at day).
Song of the Month (Cancion del
mes)
A VOLAR
Vamos
volando en un avión
Y
al ver por la ventana vemos las nubes pasar
Volando
en un avión
A
una enorme altura nos vamos a pasear
Desde
mi ventana las alas puedo ver
Y allá abajo otras cosas también.
Los
autos y edificios muy pequeños son
Y
me hacen sentir que muy alto estoy.
Es
muy divertido un avión pilotear
Y
cuando sea mayor eso voy a estudiar
Por
ahora me conformo con solo jugar
A
salvo de tormentas que me puedan dañar.
Poesia/ Poem
Día de la Madre
Tú sabes mamita cuánto te quiero
te lo he
dicho mil veces
sólo con
besos
pero hoy
es tu día
y te lo
digo de nuevo
te quiero
mamita
así hasta
el cielo.
Adivinanza Riddle
Va por el
cielo
Como
ventarrón
Lleva
pasajeros
Y anda a
motor
El avión
Trabalenguas
Corre
corre rapidito,
Solo para
en la estación,
Corre
corre rapidito,
Que el
tren ya te dejó.
Praxias: Bucofacial excercises
