This week we are continue working “Water Cycle, Plants, and Light/Sun”. During this short week, the children will learn the concept and idea of the sun. Incorporating fun activities about the sun into learning instruction and playtime at home will not only strengthen your child’s understanding of the day, but will also spark their interest in astronomy, the solar system, and even space exploration. They will be taught that when the sun rises, it is day, the sun gives us light and warmth, when the sun sets it is night. As well they will be taught that when something blocks the sun’s light it forms a shadow, and shadows are dark. We will also learn how the sun helps plants grow.

This week we started working with the plants. We are going to learn all about what plants need to grow (sun, water, soil, and air), and plants parts (root, steam, leaves and flower), as well the life cycle of plants from seed to plant. The kiddos will have the opportunity to work on a science experiment at home with their parents if they desire to do it with the little ones.
Kiddos can wet a few cotton balls and drop them in a plastic bag. Then, add a couple of beans and seal the bags. Then, they will attach the bags to the window with tape and check to see what happens during the follow days. Kids can draw what they see. They will be fascinated by the notion that a tiny seed can emerge as a plant. The little ones will enjoy what they see in the experiment. As well we are going to sing songs “las plantas necesitan…tierra, aire, agua y sol…”. We are going to review the numbers, shapes, colors, and letter.

June is here and our new topic is “Water Cycle, Plants, and Light”. This week the little ones will learn all about the water cycle. To understand water and why it rains, kids need to know about the water cycle first. I will explain to them that water covers more than 70% of the earth’s surface, and living things need water to survive. The water cycle is nature’s way of purifying, circulating, and replenishing water. They will learn a little introduction to the four basic steps in the water cycle:
Evaporation: When heat from the sun turns liquid water into gaseous water vapor, causing it to rise into the air.
Condensation: When gaseous water vapor cools at high elevations and becomes liquid (or solid) again
Precipitation: When liquid water (rain) or solid water (snow) falls to the ground.
Collection: When large amounts of water gather in oceans, lakes, rivers, and streams
I will read books to them and we are going to sing songs; las vocales, que llueva, un elefante y contando hasta 20. They will learn new vocabulary, review the shapes, colors, numbers and vowels.. Also, I will continue assigning them books in www.kidsa-z.com They can listen to the books on this site and see the words as they listen.

This week we will continue working with the unit of the month “La Jungla / La selva.” We are still learning about the habitat in the jungle and types of animals living there. We are learning that the plants and the animals need air, water and food to survive. Animals find everything they need in their habitat. Some animals that live in the jungle live in trees such as birds, snakes, and lemurs.
Also, this week we will learn some important facts about the Chimpanzee, The chimpanzees live in large families. They talk to each other using their hands and grimacing. They generally walk on their hands and feet. They stop when they want to look around. Chimpanzee babies are always hanging from their hands or on their mama’s backs. Chimpanzees are very agile to climb trees and make their beds in the branches to sleep. Sometimes the chimpanzees eat ants and use long sticks to get them out of nests.
In addition, we will continue singing songs in our virtual class. I will read books and we will review the numbers, the figures, and the letters. We will continue singing the song of the jungle animals and the numbers with the elephant, and Bugui song. Also, I will continue assigning them books in www.kidsa-z.com They can listen to the books on this site and see the words as they listen.

This week I will continue working with the unit of the month “La Jungla / La selva.” We are still learning about the habitat in the jungle and types of animals living there. Last week we talked about the elephants. We learned that elephants have two tusks and they use them to rip the bark off trees and to defend themselves. We also learned that elephants love water. They suck up the water with their trunk and shower with it.
This week the kiddos will learn about giraffes. They will learn that giraffes are the tallest animals in the world. Giraffes have little horns on their heads. When they drink water, they must spread their legs out to the sides to get to the water. Giraffes sleep during the hot hours of the day. Most sleep standing up, but some lie down. Giraffes use their long necks to reach the leaves on top of the trees. In addition, we will continue singing songs in our virtual class. I will read books and share interesting facts about giraffes. We will review the numbers, the figures, and the letters. We will continue singing the song of the jungle animals and the numbers with the elephant. Also, I will continue assigning them books in www.kidsa-z.com They can listen to the books on this site and see the words as they listen.
One learning objective for preschoolers is to compare and contrast two things. You can do this with your child at home. Compare the different animals. What do they have in common? How are they different?

La Selva-Jungla
Next week I will continue working with the unit of the month “La Jungla / La selva.” We will investigate the habitats in the jungle and types of animals living there. Last week we talked about the lions that live in the jungle of Asia. We saw that lions live in packs. The lions sleep almost all day and are mammalian animals because they feed on the mother’s milk. They do not eat every day, but when they do, they eat a lot.
This week we will be talking about the elephant. In addition, we will continue singing songs in our virtual class, I will read books and share interesting facts about elephants. We will review the numbers, the figures, and the letters. We will continue singing the song of the jungle animals and the numbers with the elephant. I will also send the lyrics of the songs, as well as the videos of the music below.

Our package delivery days were an awesomely nice adventure. We went to Camas, Washougal, Brush Prairie, Richfield, South and East Vancouver. It was a good experience and the most beautiful thing that happened to us was to see the little ones, saying hi to us, some of them said hi through the window, others walked out to see us with hearts in their hands or something special for us. We are so proud to be their teachers. They are awesome kids and we are so greatful that you share them with us.
May is here and the new topic for th month is“ La Jungla/Selva” Unit. This coming week the kids will learn the jungle animals’ habitat.

Also, the kiddos will learn the most common animals: elephants, tigers, lions, rhinoceros, monkeys, giraffes, snakes, crocodiles, bears, owls, hippopotamus.
