Earth Day! Wednesday, April 22, 2020

What is Earth Day? Why do we celebrate it? HOW do we 'celebrate' the Earth?

Did you know that we all have a 'Mother Earth'?! Here, watch this video, where Mother Earth tells us all about Earth Day, why it's important, and what we can do to celebrate our beautiful planet.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0OwMIlrVwA

Wow! Earth Day is awesome! Here we have a story about the melting of Earth's ice, how can we slow down the melting and save the lovely Polar Bears?!

Reading Recommendations

Hello Everyone!

During these days where we must be inside, all day, it's important that we use some of that time to use our brains. Reading is a great way to do this, and it can also be very fun! It's good for you young children to also listen to the stories that you read so you can learn and practice the correct pronunciation! Here are some good stories for you to read and listen!

(Note: click 'CC' to see the words. Sleepy Animals doesn't have closed captions, but the others do)

Sleepy Animals

The Selfish Crocodile 

Caterpillar Shoes

Here you can find more stories online, find one that you like and tell me about it!

So, why DO we have the Easter Bunny, and why does the Easter Bunny hide EGGS? Let's watch the video and find out

Very interesting! I want to colour some Easter Eggs now! How do we color Easter eggs? What do we need? It's actually really easy! all we need is 

• Hot water (agua caliente)
• Vinegar (vinagre)
• Food colouring (alimentario)
• White crayons, to draw on the egg (crayones blancos)

Lets watch a video that shows us how! 

Wow! Now we should hide the eggs, and do our own EGG HUNT! That sounds FUN! :)

I've also got some fun worksheets for you to do! Here's a word search, egg hunt, and some fun pictures to colour!
