Week of February 2nd. – February 6th.

“Conociendo las plantas/ knowing plants “

Hola Abejitas Parents!

The month of January was full of fun for our children as they learned about animals! As always the fun continues with a new topic: Las Plantas / The Plants

My goal this week is to teach our kids the characteristics of plants and experience their life cycle.  They will also be able to recognize plants as living beings and develop an effective understanding for their role in nature.  This project provides children with opportunities to observe, identify, and interact with plants while introducing them the responsibility plant care.

 Song of the week:

Cancion de las Plantas
Un día en el parque jugando estaba
Con mis amigos de Sff,
Mire hacia el suelo, vi algo pequeño
La semillita yo vi pasar
Yo la tome con mucho cuidado
Y en una taza con amor la sembré,
Con tierra y agua creció mi plantita
Y muchas flores yo vi nacer.
Cuida tú alrededor,
A las plantitas respeta,
Por un mundo mejor cuida la naturaleza

Rhyme

Un hermosa flor
Para ti con mucho amor. 

Fingerplays:

Abro y cierro
Abro y cierro
Abro y cierro mis manitos
Abro y cierro
Y doy unas palmaditas.

Star Words of the Week:
