What are we learning?
Dear Parents,
We hope you are having a beautiful week. This week we will learn about other community places and means of transportation. Children should be able to identify the three modes of transportation (land, air, and sea) and to categorize different types of transportation into the correct mode. Children will love playing with all types of transportation including vehicles such as cars, trucks and more.
Through practical actions, we will keep enlightening kids about this fantastic theme. Each one of these activities will help to continue strengthening gross and fine motor skills, language and socio-emotional skills.
· Children will explore the transportation mode of community helpers such as police car, ambulance, fire truck, etc.
· Children will explore places such as parks, theater, movies, etc.
· Children will read books about community places.
· Children will listen to sounds from a CD and will try to repeat the words.
· Children will create a craft related to this theme. They will build a fire truck using recycled boxes, paints and construction paper.
All these exciting activities will allow children to continue exploring about transportation and community places.
Thank you for letting us play such an important role in your child’s life and we hope you have a great weekend.

Song of the Week – Comunidad
Conozco mucha mucha gente en mi vida,
Que siempre ayuda con mucha alegría
Y si tú quieres conocer sus oficios
Jugando vamos a nombrarlos en un ratito.
Es l enfermera, es el cartero
Es la maestra de Sff!
El policía y el bombero
Son los amigos que te cuidaran.
Conozco mucha……….
Es el dentista y el granjero
El cocinero…delicias te hará
El carpintero y el arquitecto
Son los amigos que te ayudaran.
Poems

Siempre está rodeado de animalitos
