🎵 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.

📚 Riddles - The senses (Los sentidos)

Nos sirven para oler, oír, ver

Tocar y degustar

Los tienes en tu cuerpo

¿Los vas a adivinar?

📚 Tongue Twisters

Tito ¿Te tomaste todo el té?

Todo el té tempranito lo tomé

🎵 Songs of the Week - Las Partes del Cuerpo

Las partes de mi cuerpo , hoy yo voy a cantar

Bailando con mis amigos

Cada parte moverás

Empiezo con mis brazitos

Con los que puedo abrazar

Con mucho amor a papito

Y luego a mi mamá

Moviendo la cabeza yo digo si o no

Moviendo mi colita bailando yo estoy

Ya todos preparados pues vamos aprender

Las partes del cuerpo que tu vas a mover

Piernas y cabeza

Pies brazos y cadera

Hombros manos y rodillas

Pies brazos y piernas.
