New "Simon says" words:
chóquela (CHO keh lah): give me five
aplauda (ah PLAUW dah): clap
The first song is a traditional chant. When we sing the "bate bate" part of the song, we pretend to stir the hot chocolate. This song is included on José Luis Orozco's De Colores CD. You can find the song by clicking here.
Chocolate
uno, dos, tres, CHO
uno, dos, tres, CO
uno, dos, tres, LA
uno, dos, tres, TE
chocolate, chocolate, bate bate el chocolate.
Our featured song this week is about a beautiful farm with lots of animals. You may notice that some of the animals have a slightly different sound in Spanish than in English; for example, instead of "cockadoodledoo," in Spanish the rooster says, "kikiriki". José Luis Orozco includes this song on his De Colores CD. Click here for that version. The version we prefer at our house is from Jorge Anaya's Whistlefritz CD. Click here for that version.
Vengan a ver mi granja
Vengan a ver mi granja que es hermosa
Vengan a ver mi granja que es hermosa
Los pollitos hacen así: pio, pio
Los pollitos hacen así: pio, pio
O, vengan amigos, vengan amigos, vengan amigos, vengan
O, vengan amigos, vengan amigos, vengan amigos, vengan
(We change the animals that we include and the order based on the theme for the week and which animals the students select.) In addition to singing about each animal, the children do the sign (ASL) for each one as well.
La vaquita hace así: muuuuu
Los perritos hacen así: guau, guau
Los gatitos hacen así: miau, miau
Los patitos hacen así: cuac, cuac
Y los puercos hacen así: oinc, oinc
Y el gallo hace así: kikiriki
