Our Winter Concert Songs

Puddle

O the trouble with this puddle is it's very hard to see
If it comes up to my ankle or it comes up to my knee.
If I decide to step in, the chances are I'll get
A welly full of water and my foot all wet!

Monster

The birds come to the bird table. Some make the feeders sway.
But now and then a monster comes and CHASES THEM AWAY.
I put our nuts and seeds and fruit and hope the birds will stay.
But still that monster comes along and CHASES THEM AWAY.
I only want to feed the birds but I can't get my way.
That monster called a squirrel comes and CHASES THEM AWAY!

Little flakes of Snow

O where do you come from
You little flakes of snow,
Falling, falling, softly falling
On the earth below?

On the trees and on the bushes
On the mountains afar,
Tell me snowflakes do you come from
Where the angels are?

finger knitting

Ash class has been busy learning how to fingerknit! They have been turning them into necklaces, bracelets and decorations for our Wish Tree. We are turning our Thankful tree into a Wish Tree this holiday season, and we will be sharing our ideas about our wishes for people in the world.

A new winter poem

Winter Weather
Let's put on our mittens
And button up our coats
Let's wrap scarves snugly
Around our throats.

Pull on our boots,
Fasten the straps
And tie on tightly
Our warm winter caps.

Then open the door......
And out we go
Into the soft and feathery snow.
