  “Como funcionan las cosas“

Dear Monitos Parents,

This month we will be talking about the objects around us and how they work in order to awaken the child, not only basic knowledge, but also to stimulate interest and help them to create new things. Children will learn how various elements and artifacts of daily life can generate some scientific experiments and logical comparisons that can stimulate their cognition, critical thinking, and analytical work.

Song of the Week

The children in Monitos class will enjoy singing the song “Como funcionan las cosas”. Parents, please encourage your child to listen to this song at home too. It can be found on our Sff! CD.

CANCIÓN DE LAS ARTES

Yo soy un pequeño artista

Con colores y papel

Mucho arte crearé (x2)

Con tijeras cortaré

Con pincel yo pintaré

Muchas flores y el sol

Que en el parque veo yo (x2)

Arco iris y el mar

Pinta pinta sin parar

Aquí en Sff! un arista crecerá

Ese soy yo!

POESÍA

La paleta del pintor

Tiene muchos colores

Para pintar cuadros

Llenos de ángeles y flores

¡Que bien pintan los pintores!

Todos esos  retratos

Que alegran nuestros corazones.

Lleva pasajeros

Y anda a motor
