           Song of the Week
 

Un día en el parque jugando estaba

¡Con mis amigos de Sff!

Miré hacia el suelo, vi algo pequeño

La semillita yo vi pasar

Yo la tome con mucho cuidado

Y en una taza con amor la sembré,

Con tierra y agua creció mi plantita

Y muchas flores yo vi nacer.

Cuida tú alrededor,

A las plantitas respeta,

Por un mundo mejor cuida la naturaleza

           Poems

Poem #1

Mi plantita es muy bonita

Yo la tengo que regar

Cada día crece un poco

Por la luz que el sol le da.

Poem #2

Semillita semillita

Que con agua y luz del sol

Te convertiste en una plantita

Con muchas hojas y una flor.

           Riddles

Verde soy

Huelo muy bien

Crezco con flores , plantas

Y árboles también

Las hojas
