This week we finished the solar system topic. The kiddos learned that The Solar System is made up of all the planets that orbit our Sun. In addition to planets, the Solar System also consists of moons, comets, asteroids, minor planets, and dust and gas. Everything in the Solar System orbits or revolves around the Sun.

We started our week doing an art project of  how the earth rotates and orbits the sun, and how the moon does this to the earth too. We did a fun science experiment by making Jupiter fizz and dissolve. The kiddos were really exited doing this amazing science experiment!!!, and to finalize the week we did funny games related with to 20160401_134808_resized.jpgour solar system, we sang songs, reviewed the planets. Children chose a planet and orbited around the sun. We also we made a very fun Alien space hat.

Letras   

We incorporated our touch investigation with the letter/ letra Jj. The kids practiced handwriting, we sang songs, read a book of the letter Jj, and identified the letter in our daily reading. The English letter Jj can be pronounced (hei). While the Spanish pronunciation is (jota, sounds like “h”). Examples we worked with this week were: jirafa/giraffe
jaula/cage
jugo/ juice
joya/jewel

This week we worked with the number 16. We had a fun time playing educational games counting numbers with a die moving around of our solar system. The start counting activity, this was a great recognition and sequence number.
Have a great spring break !!!
