Theme of the Week: Mi país. My Country

 

Hola Osito Parents,

Among the topics taught in pre-school education is of great importance incorporate the knowledge and appreciation of the country where we live. Children will learn, important places, customs, some of the natural and cultural riches of America. Through this knowledge we seek to build a national identity from a very young age, encouraging the care and protection of all that is our heritage.

The value will be working: Respect for the common good.

Canción

Yo nací en un lindo país

Con 4 estaciones

2 mares azules

Montañas y por venir

 yo soy feliz

Creciendo en este país

Aprendo respeto cuidado

y entrego lo mejor que hay en mí

En Sff! me enseñan muchas cosas de mi país

El respeto por mi amiguito

Me hace siempre un niño feliz (bis)

¡Que viva mi país!

Poesía

El país donde vivo 

Es mi hermoso hogar

Sus paisajes, los lugares

Todo luce fenomenal.

Yo lo cuido, Lo valoro.

Yo lo quiero de verdad.

Adivinanza

Es el lugar donde vivimos
Es de todos nuestro hogar
Tiene hermosos lugares
Para cuidar y visitar.

Mi País

 

Es mi vestido tres colores
Tengo estrellas me llevas en tu corazón
Soy el símbolo de la nación.

La bandera

Trabalenguas
Tantos ríos
Pocos puentes
Pocos ríos

Tantos puentes

Week of February 15th-19th

Theme of the Week: “Como funcionan las cosas” “Little scientists

Hola Osito Parents,

This week we will be working with our little scientists so that they can present our experiments in the science fair next week.

 

The purpose of teaching science is to develop the child's ability to understand the nature of their environment. Children and adults must understand what it takes to be scientific and how it can potentially affect each one of us.

 

The objective of teaching science is not to educate people that will go on to devote the rest of their lives to scientific questions, but, instead, it is to train people to have a holistic view that promotes the development of scientific thinking. It teaches them to question and reflect on natural phenomena that happen to around us by investigating the causes that generate them. We want them to develop a scientific attitude and become reflective, critical, and analytical so that they are able to follow a method to conduct research based on the available information,  formulate hypotheses and verify them through the experience.

The value will be working is Creativity.

Praxias: Ejercicios Bucofaciales

You can take him wherever you want, take care of it, dress it, take pictures and share them with us. The pet will travel with you for this week.
