These were 1st graders and they loved to sing. We sang three songs with them to back up their Language Arts program. Aloud reading/listening to rhyming words: i.e. book, Frog in a Bog = songs, "Hole in the bottom of the sea" and "There was an old lady, who swallowed a fly" A students journal about "poisonous boa contrictors" he saw at the zoo recently inspired the song/explanation about boas "I'm being swallowed by a boa" They then joined another 1st grade to practice 7 patriotic songs they were "singing along" with a CD for a night time program. We later explained the meaning of those words, nobody had.

The second is just the opposite. Little cartoon rabbits are shooting and blowing each other up. RRRAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
