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

• Jugamos con los sonidos: Colocamos la lengua arriba del paladar y soplamos, emitimos el fonema Rrrrrr
• Lo pronunciamos de forma rápida y lenta.

Homework of the week:

Make sure to take home your child’s notebook this Friday to reinforce the activities that we are working on in class. Please bring them back on Monday.
