Penguin song

 


Penguin song,

 by The Learning Station

Lyrics 

Have you ever seen a penguin come to tea?

If you look at me a penguin you will see.

Penguin attention (stiff your body),  

penguin begin (salute).

Right flipper ( flap your right hand like a penguin).

Then you start over the lyrics then add left flipper, right foot, left foot, bob your head, stick out your tongue and turn in a circle.

You can watch it on YouTube. 

Last year this song was a hit singing by me.  This year I needed help from the video to convince them that it was fun .  We watched one time then they were convinced.  I use my phone or my tablet sometimes but the less the better.  

I wrote the song and hang it on the wall in the circle area so I can read it whenever I want to sing it. By now I know it by heart.

I'm not a singer but I think a real but bad singer is better for your kids than a perfect one on a screen.  

If I can sing it you can you.

The principles behind my lesson plans for a group of 8 toddlers

  THE PRINCIPLES BEHIND MY LESSON PLAN FOR A GROUP OF NINE TODDLERS My lesson plans are a tool to help the kids and me to have a good day.  When children are busy developing their skills, they are happy and so am I.  It should never be something to stress about.  I made it clear to myself years ago, the children under my care here and now are my priority at all time.  I plan during nap but nap is not always quiet.  If a child needs my attention I drop whatever I'm doing and give attention to him or her.  If they are quiet during the day I might start to sit at the table and plan or prepare an art project but if the atmosphere of the classroom gets hectic I invite them to cut with me at the table or draw with me,  or dropping everything and march with them instead of running, whatever I think that might help to channel their energy and engage them with me. If I didn't  have time to make a lesson plan, I improvise or do again what worked yester...
