We have scheduled learning activities related to this theme in order to continue strengthening gross and fine motor skills, language and socio, emotional skills. We will work with sensory box with several natural elements so the children can touch, feel and identify. We will also let children taste, smell and  listen and identify different sounds.

🎵 Songs of the Week - "CANCION DE LOS SENTIDOS”

Con mis cinco sentidos yo aprenderé

A ver todo a mí alrededor,

Con mis cinco sentidos puedo ver

El cielo con su color.

Escucharte a ti eso me hace feliz

Y sentir el sol sobre mí

Saborear la miel y poder oler

Las flores que hay en el jardín.

Con mis cinco sentidos…...

Poderte abrazar y también escuchar

Mi maestra en Sff

Oler, saborear, escuchar y sentir

El amor que sientes por mi!!

Con mis cinco sentidos….

📚 Poems

Miramos con los ojos

Por la nariz puedo oler

Tocamos con las manos

Sentimos por la piel

Oímos por las orejas

Cuando escuchamos bien

Y con  la lengua yo disfruto

Galletitas con miel.
