Wee Read - On Our Way

Early Literacy Tip of the Week:
Talk with children, not at them - talk is much more effective when it's interactive

Good Morning

Hello, How are You?

Did You Ever See an Airplane?
Sung to: "Did You Ever See a Lassie?"
Did you ever see an airplane,
An airplane, and airplane?
Did you ever see an airplane
Way up in the sky?
There are big ones and small ones
And short ones and tall ones.
Did you ever see an airplane
Way up in the sky?

Open Shut Them

Dump Truck Song
Sung to: “One little, Two Little, Three Little Indians”

The Elevator Song
Sung to: "Do Your Ears Hang Low?"
Oh the city is great and the city is grand
There's a whole lot of people
on a little piece of land
And we live way up on the 57th floor
and this is what we do when we go out the door.
We take the elevator up and the elevator down,
take the elevator up, take the elevator down
Take the elevator up and the elevator down
and we turn around.
