Greetings to Ositos Parents!

This is the second week of March and I feel that we just started the Year. It is unbelievable how time goes by.  During this second week we will continue studying My Country, in where we prepare a nice presentation to the teach children about the amazing history on the United States.  We think that Literature is the most important learning approach on an awesome subject! Since the US has a very deep history, I tried to select specific Historical Moments that are fun and that the kids will enjoy learning about. We will use visual representation for demonstrating to the preschoolers.    Also, we will be having other fun activities inside the classroom with materials related to US history including topics on Native Americans, Our Founders Fathers, culture, and food.  Hopefully, the children will enjoy this week and come home talking about the US History.

• Pictures of Founding Fathers and Native Americans.
• Poster of pictures with National symbols.
