This week we're talking about the plants which will help the child to learn more about their natural environment. We know about the parts of plants as they grow and develop, as we must also take care of its importance in our environment.

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

POESIA

Mi plantita es muy bonita

Yo la tengo que regar

Cada día crece un poco

Por la luz que el sol le da

ADIVINANZA

Verde soy

Huelo muy bien

Crezco con flores, plantas

Y árboles también

Cancion.

 Por qué perder las esperanzas de volverse a ver 

No es más que un hasta luego

No es más que un breve adiós

Adiós, adiós, nunca quizás,

nos volvamos a encontrar

Cantando jay jay jipi jipi jay…

(el jipi jay)

Cantando jay jay jipi jipi jay…

(el jipi jay)

Cantando jay jay jipi, jay jay jipi …

jay jay jipi jipi jay….. el jipi jay

(Repetir)

Se va la luz, se esconde el sol

pero siempre ha de brillar,

la estrella que en el cielo da

el calor de la amistad

No es más que un hasta luego

No es más que un breve adiós

Adiós, adiós nunca quizás

nos volvamos a encontrar
