Mariposa (Sp. and Eng.)

Insectos con alas, tienen seis patas

Vuelen, comen néctar, van a México

Me hace sentir feliz, alegre

Mariposas

Winged insects have six legs

They fly, eat nectar, & travel to Mexico
It makes me feel happy, cheerful
Butterflies

La música

Suena bella, te hace bailar

Se mueve si la tocas, si soplas, si la ruedas

Cantando juntos me siento conectado

Canción

It sounds beautiful, it makes you dance
It moves if you play, if you blow, if you turn it round,
Singing together I feel connected

I hope we can get more food.

I hope that my mom”'s leg gets fixed. I hope that we can get flowers. I hope that we can get an apple tree. I hope that we can get more room. To play soccer.

I hope there are some people.

I hope my family has some pets.

I hope there are some

people playing soccer.

I hope people can grow more fruit

I hope my sister stops scratching me.

I hope there are more friends to play with.
