What are we learning?

Dear Parents,

We hope you are having a wonderful week. This week we are going to learn about a new theme called “My emotions.” Through songs, games, and other activities, children will learn how to express their emotions. Each one of these activities will help to continue strengthening gross and fine motor skills, language, and socio-emotional skills. Below you can find a summary of all activities during the week:

• Observe the emotions posters that we have placed in the classroom wall.

• Make expressions with their faces while looking themselves in the mirror.

• Learn to identify the action “in” and out” while playing with soft cubes and trying to place them in and remove them out of a basket.

• Learn to hug using fabric dolls while listening to the song “La Ronda de los Sentimientos”

• Learn to hug using fabric dolls while listening the song “La Ronda de los Sentimientos”

Thank you for letting us play such an essential role in your child’s life and we hope you have a great weekend.
