CANCION ANIMALES DE LA GRANJA
Mi abuelita tiene, una granja bella
Con animalitos y flores muy bellas,
Ahora este jueguito de imitar sonidos
Tú lo haces primero y luego tu amiguito (x2)
El perrito ladra (sonido)
El gato maulla (sonido)
El gallito canta (sonido)
La vaca estornuda (sonido)
El conejo salta
El caballo trota
Y los pajaritos la canción entonan(x2)

CANCION ANIMALES DE LA SELVA
Los animales que hay en la selva,
Tú los vas repetir,
Algunos gordos otros muy altos
Igual nos vamos a divertir.
El elefante que está muy grande
Y la jirafa que alta es
Y el monito que salta y salta
El cocodrilo… me va a morder
Los animales……..
Es un león que esta enojón
Es la serpiente que es muy decente
Y la tortuga come lechuga
Y el ratón (donde está el ratón?)
Ya se escondió.
Los animales…….

POESIA 1
Los zorros en el monte
Las gallinas en el corral
Los peces en el río
Y los patitos dicen cua cua cua

POESIA 2
Un elefante no es elegante
No usa sombrero
Corbata ni guantes
La trompa muy larga
La panza gigante
Las patas muy gruesas
Y las orejas  muy grandes.

ADIVINANZA 1
Sale de noche
Miau miau
Duerme de día
Miau miau
Le gusta la carne
Y la leche fría
El gato.
ADIVINANZA 2
Soy verde
Me gusta saltar
Jugar en el charco
Y también croar
El sapo.

Dear Parents,

First of all I would like to thank you for your support. During the month of April, we have learnt about plants and how to take care of them. We have encouraged our sapitos to explore nature and we will continue to do so this week while working in our garden project. We are sure, they will have lots of fun and will enjoy learning something new.  

Song - 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

Poems

Mi plantita es muy bonita
Yo la tengo que regar
Cada día crece un poco
Por la luz que el sol le da

Semillita semillita
Que con agua y luz del sol
Te convertiste en una plantita
Con muchas hojas y una flor

Riddle

Verde soy
Huelo muy bien
Crezco con flores , plantas
Y árboles también
Las hojas

Tongue twister

Pepe pela papas
