The More We Get Together

(Our first song to sing and sign!)

The More We Get Together

The more we get together, together, together.

The more we get together.

The happier we'll be!

For your friends are my friends

And my friends are your friends!

The more we get together.

The happier we'll be!

Make New Friends

Make new friends

And keep the old

One is silver

And the other's gold.

A circle's round

It has no end

That's how long

I want to be your friend.

You have a friend

And I have another

Put them both together

And we have each other.

The Color Song

By Nellie Edge

Brown is a bear

And purple is a plum.

Black is a witch's hat

The Mealworm Hop

(Tune: The Bunny Hop)

From Ames Publications

Mealworms sure walk funny.

They're not like us it's true.

Each leg pair moves together.

One! Three! Two!

Their legs don't move in order.

But this is what they do.

First, then last, then middle.

One! Three! Two!

Just what are these critters?

Let us give a clue

They're not worms, they're insects.

One! Three! Two!

Mealworms are the larvae

Of beetles, it is true.

They live in grain and flour.

One! Three! Two!

Grain beetles have four stages

As lots of insects do

Egg, larva, pupa, adult

One! Three! Two!

The eggs are very tiny

And last a week or two

Then hatch out into mealworms

One! Three! Two!

Mealworms are the larvae

Munching, chomping too

Shedding skins and growing

One! Three! Two!

The pupea are not active

Resting, changing too

They don't walk like mealworms

One! Three! Two!

Adults are known as "Darklings".

They don't fly it's true.

Do they walk like mealworms?

One! Three! Two!

The THEY   Song

from Mailbox Magazine

(Tune:   Farmer in the Dell)

There is no A in they

There is no A in they

T-H-E-Y-

That is what you say!

*********************************************************

We are also singing to learn our grade level outcomes in math.

Students will identify odd and even numbers to 20.

We group ourselves each morning and tell whether there are an odd or even number of students present.

We can group objects and tell whether they are odd or even

and we chant....

2, 4, 6, 8, 0,

Even numbers are really great!

1, 3, 5, 7 and 9,

Odd numbers stand alone in the line!

In Science, we are learning about repeated patterns in nature.

We are watching the changes that take place on a small maple tree

right in front of the school. We will continue to observe this tree throughout the seasons.

We sing while we learn.....and we can sign this one too!

The Season Song

(Tune: When the Saints Go Marching In )

Oh when the leaves, fall off the trees

Oh when the leaves fall off the trees

Then we know, it must be Autumn

When the leaves fall off the trees.

*

Oh when the snow, begins to fall

Oh when the snow begins to fall

Then we know, it must be Winter

When the snow begins to fall.

*

Oh when the birds, begin to nest

Oh when the birds begin to nest

Then we know, it must be Springtime

When the birds begin to nest.

*

Oh when the sun, gets oh so hot

Oh when the sun gets oh so hot

Then we know, it must be Summer

When the sun gets oh so hot!
