Song of the Week

Animales de la granja

Mi abuelito tiene una granja bella

Con  animalitos y flores muy bellas

Ahora este jueguito de imitar sonidos

Tu lo haces primero y luego tú amiguito

El perrito ladra

El gato maúlla

El gallito canta

La vaca estornuda

El conejo salta

El caballo trota

Y los pajaritos  la canción entonan

Star Words of the Week

“Animales de la selva”

Los animales que hay en la selva,

Tu los vas a repetir,

Algunos gordos y otros muy altos

Igual nos vamos a divertir

El elefante que está muy grande

Y la jirafa que alta es

Y el monitor que salta y salta

El cocodrilo… me va a morder

Coco coco Cocodrilo

en el río está tranquilo

El ele  elefante

en la trompa lleva un guante.

Salta salta saltamontes

Salta mucho y no se rompe

Soy verde me gusta

Saltar jugar en el charco

Y también croar

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

Las hojas

PALABRAS ESTRELLAS

El Tallo/ The Stem.

Las Hojas/ The Leaves.

La Raiz/ The Roots.
