We are happy you have joined us again this week to share with the letter H! What a better way of welcoming you to our alphabet activities than saying a big ¡hola! to you all. Also, you probably know the Hippopatamus is our favorite animal and it starts with the Letter H. Come check what we made this week!

Build a Hamburger

 

Using circles and different color papers to best resemble a burger cut out your child’s favorite toppings and have them build a paper hamburger.

 

Make a H picture book

 

Print out pictures of things that begin with the letter H.

 

Cut a regular size piece of paper in half and then fold the halves in half creating a booklet. Adhere your pictures to each page and label them. Have your child try to identify each picture talk about the letter H sounds when pronouncing the words.

 

Practice the letter H

Have your child use their favorite color to trace letter H over and over. The letter H in capital and lowercase.

Songs

Hippo Song

Hippo positions hut!

What can make a hippopotamus smile?

What can make him run for more than a mile?

It’s not a party with a paper hat

Or a bag of candy that will make him fat

That’s not what hippos do

I said that’s not what hippos do!

 

(Chorus)

They ooze through the goose without any shoes

They wade through the water ‘till their lips turn blue

That’s what hippos do

I said that’s what hippos do!

 

What can make a hippopotamus smile?

What can make him run for more than a mile?

It’s not a tune on the old violin

Or listening to the sound of the whistling wind

That’s not what hippos do

I said that’s not what hippos do!

(Chorus)

 

Hola Don Pepito

 

Hola Don Pepito,

 

Hola Don Jose,

 

¿Pasó usted por mi casa?

 

Por su casa yo pasé.

 

¿Vió usted a mi abuela?

 

A su abuela yo la ví.

 

Adiós Don Pepito,

 

Adiós Don José.
