  • Play our video Los cinco sentidos. Then ask children what the weather was like when they went to school this morning. Ask, ¿Qué vieron en el cielo? ¿Qué sintieron? ¿Frío, calor, ambos?
  • Read the issue together. Invite kids to point to each part of their body as you go.
  • Then get kids up and moving with our ¡BAILA BAILA! video.
  • Finally, do the Demuestra lo que sabes skill sheet.

Materials: light-colored construction paper, masking tape

  • In advance, write actions on sheets of construction paper, such as “menéate,” “tócate las orejas,” ”salta en un pie,” and so on. Then tape the sheets to the f loor in a zigzag pattern. These will be the “charcos.” Space the sheets so kids can get from one to the next with a small stretch.
  • Have kids take off their shoes and socks and line up behind the puddles. Then play some music! When the music stops, kids have to do whatever is written on their puddle!
  • A variation of the game is to do it outdoors and make the puddles with sidewalk chalk. You can also make it a skills game by writing sight words on the puddles and having kids read their sight word aloud.
