Songs that are sung in
our Stepping Stone Class Each day we sing, at circle time and before snack. From experience, we know that the words of the songs are often "modified" between the classroom and home. To help you understand what we are singing, we shall periodically give you the words to the songs. |
|
The song we sing before snack:
|
Thank You
Thank you for the world so sweet. Thank you for the food we eat. Thank you for the birds that sing. Thank you for everything. |
 |

The introductory song we often sing at circle time to encourage the children to speak: |
Good Morning
Good morning, Good morning, Good morning to you. (I will walk around the circle and say, "Good morning " to you.)
|
|

|
At circle time during the first two weeks we shall sing the following songs:
|
People on the Bus
The driver on the bus says, "Please move back" The baby on the bus says, " Ha, ha, ha!" The teacher on the bus says, "Sh, sh, sh!" The teacher on the bus says, " I love you". (Insert teachers' names) |

What shall we do on a rainy day, rainy day, rainy day? What shall we do on a rainy day, when we can't go out to play. We'll read a book on a rainy day, rainy day, rainy day. We'll read a book on a rainy day when we can't go out to play.
