Preschool Week 3

This week we continued working with “Mi Familia” “My Family” theme. I used this theme as a guide to teach children more about families and what makes up a family. It’s so lovely to see how they are learning in every class! We worked with reading the book “Ricitos de Oro y los Tres Osos” “Goldilocks and the Three Bears”. With this classic and amazing story tale the kids learned new Spanish words such as:

We did great activity, such as story sequencing, coloring, cutting out, and arranging correctly. They also regonized three diferents sizes as grande/big, mediano/medium, and pequeño/small. The kids enjoyed this book and they had a good time learning our new words. In addition, we worked on different activities to help build up their fine motor skills.

This week we started working with vowels. The kiddos recognized and practiced the vowel A a. They did different activities with the letter, such as finding the vowel Aa in our daily reading, stickers, and handwriting.

This week we continued working with number 2. We had a fun time playing and using items for sorting and counting. Sorting helps children see differences and similarities. We used colors bears and buttons. We traced the number 2 (número dos), colored, and counted stickers, sticks, and more items.

This month we continued with circle shape (círculo). I talked about it with the kiddos passing around the shape, so the children could examine this shape up close. We compared different sizes of the circle shape. We also played a game that involved finding circle shapes in our classroom.
