Tres Pececitos (again!)


La Letra

Tres pecesitos se fueron a nadar 
el mas pequeño se fué al fondo del mar 
y un tiburón le dijo ven acá
ven ven ven, ven para acá 
ven ven ven, ven para acá 
no, no, no, no, no no no, hay no, no, no,no 
porque se enoja mi mama


Tres pecesitos se fueron a nadar 
el mas pequeño se fué al fondo del mar 
y un tiburón le dijo ven acá
ven ven ven, ven para acá 









La Letra


Una sardina, una sardina,

Nadando en el agua,

OH, NO! Fue comida por …

Un pulpito, un pulpito,
Nadando en el agua,
Un pulpito, un pulpito,

Un atún, un atún,
Nadando en el agua,
Un atún, un atún,

Glú, glú, glú
OH, NO! Fue comido por …

Un tiburón, un tiburón,
Nadando en el agua,
Un tiburón, un tiburón,

Junio

Getting into our June theme of underwater adventure I figured I'd offer some fun water videos... here's one to start :)


Here are the lyrics: 

POR LA PRADERA EN LA LAGUNA ELLOS VAN
SON TRES PECECITOS CON SU LINDA MAMA
ELLA DECIA: NO DEJEN DE NADAR!
Y NADANDO AL DIQUE QUERIAN LLEGAR

BOOP BOOP DIT-TEM DAT TEM WHAT-TEM CHU
BOOP BOOP DIT-TEM DAT TEM WHAT-TEM CHU

HACIA EL DIQUE NADARON JUNTOS SIN PARAR
ALTO! LES DIJO LA MAMA AL OBSERVAR

QUE PUEDEN PERDERSE SI MUY LEJOS SE VAN
SI VIERON QUE JUNTOS LO PODRIAN LOGRAR
Y NADARON Y NADARON HASTA LLEGAR AL MAR

BOOP BOOP DIT-TEM DAT TEM WHAT-TEM CHU
BOOP BOOP DIT-TEM DAT TEM WHAT-TEM CHUY

PRONTO LLEGARON HASTA EL INMENSO MAR
VIVA!! GRITARON , LO PUDIMOS LOGRAR!!
NADAREMOS TODO EL DIA HASTA QUE LLEGUE EL FINAL
Y PRONTO ACERCANDOSE SE PUDO AVISTAR
UN GRAN TIBURON QUE LOS HIZO TEMBLAR

BOOP BOOP DIT-TEM DAT TEM WHAT-TEM CHU
BOOP BOOP DIT-TEM DAT TEM WHAT-TEM CHU

EL GRAN TIBURON YA MUY CERCA ESTA
SOCORRO!!! GRITABAN CON UN MIEDO FATAL
QUERIAN QUE ALGUIEN LOS PUDIERA AYUDAR
LAS GRANDES BALLENAS PUDIERON ESCUCHAR
Y EL FEROZ TIBURON SE EMPEZÓ A ALEJAR

BOOP BOOP DIT-TEM DAT TEM WHAT-TEM CHU
BOOP BOOP DIT-TEM DAT TEM WHAT-TEM CHU

Y DEL MAR SE ALEJARON PARA AL DIQUE LLEGAR

BOOP BOOP DIT-TEM DAT TEM WHAT-TEM CHU
BOOP BOOP DIT-TEM DAT TEM WHAT-TEM CHU

Y SEGUROS VIVIERON JUNTO A SU MAMA

A place for kids and families to explore languages, cultures, and learning through music, videos, and interactive games.

A certified bilingual teacher who holds a Master of International Affairs from Columbia University, Basho has worked with children for close to 20 years as a mentor, advocate, and ally.

Parent Resources :)

Queridos Familias,

Ahhh!! Just a bit ago I ran across some wonderful websites!!! I would love to share them with you, but before I do let's chat:

I've been hearing quite a few parents saying "I think they are saying something.. but I have no idea! I can't understand them!... I need to learn Spanish!" (Something along those lines)... Well you gorgeous parents out there.. here is a fantastic site I found... it has everything from an educational telanovela (soap opera) to the weather in Spanish to phrases of the day... it offers resources for beginners, intermediate advanced learners... it has pronunciation... crossword puzzles, Spanish slang (never too old for that...) ahhh if I'm rambling it's because I'm so excited it looks wonderful I would love for you guys to play around on the site and learn a few things and maybe you and your kiddos can embark on this new language journey together!!!!! Especially if they see you guys trying to learn... just think how excited they will be to learn! So please click click click here to get started! :)


Another site I came across is PBS it's awesome!! Take a look at Sesame Street, Dragon Tales, and Maya and Miguel all of these selections have Spanish options, even with Maya and Miguel you can choose to have the entire site in Spanish! They include videos, at home activities, games... look around see if you find anything you like! The best way to help your kids out (if you are serious about this Spanish thing..) is to get them exposed to the language as much as possible! Enjoy :)

I think I might of mentioned this one before but just in case here is more from Pbs! 

Also here are some book, music, and dvd ideas!

Dragonflies

Fun in the Dragonfly room making masks of different zoo animals.

Here we have our kiddos working diligently on them and coloring very carefully!

They color them and then bring them to me so I can put them together, the waiting part... the tough part.

Then we took our masks to the hallways where we could show them off and play around!
