I like winter
I like spring

I like coffee
I like tea

Let’s reach consensus
And BOTH agree!

Get out of the room (snap, snap)
Get out of the room (snap, snap)
Get out of the room, get out of the room, get out of the room (snap, snap)

Did you finish cleaning up?
Did you push your chair in?
Are you very quiet?
Get out of the room.

(Chorus)

Are your hands by your sides?
Are your feet quiet?
Are you facing forward?
Get out of the room.

(Chorus)

There’s bat and there’s hat, there’s cat and there’s sat
There’s mat and there’s chat—the at family

There’s hop and there’s pop, there’s top and there’s shop
There’s chop and there’s stop—the op family

There’s jet and there’s get, there’s wet and there’s set
There’s net and there’s let—the et family

There’s bug and there’s rug, there’s jug and there’s mug
There’s hug and there’s slug—the ug family

It’s time to line up for the hallway
We’re on our way to (the gym) (Art class) (Library)
I’m facing the door and my body’s still
Hands to my side, and they’ll stay there, they will…

We’ll be silent now in the hallway
We will not disturb anyone
Let’s go one, two, three, we’re ready
To go have some fun!

Learning business law is the most fun
I learned the law and the law’s fun (2X)

Tenants, landlords, contract, it’s never done
I learned the law and the law’s fun (2X)

We learned so much about voidable contracts—If you’re a minor this applies
Get stuff in writing, no matter what—Don’t just trust the look in their eyes…
I learned the law and the law’s fun (2X)

An object at rest will stay at rest
I fought the law and the law won (2X)

An object in motion will stay in motion
I fought the law and the law won (2X)

Velocity is constant and the path is straight—It can’t change at all
Unless of course, there’s an unbalanced force
I fought the law and the law won (2X)

Fractions are so fun
They make my mind a run
Adding like denominators
Will get you the right sum

½, 2/4, 4/8
3/6, 5/10, 6/12
All of these equivalent
They can reduce themselves

The whole stands alone
The whole stands alone
3/3, 4/4, 5/5, 6/6, all stand alone…

Line up, line up little stars
Doesn’t matter where you are

Mouths are closed, eyes faced front
Quiet feet are what we want

Line up, line up little stars
Courteous is what we are

Sing to The Farmer in the Dell

It’s okay to be peanutty-free
It’s not okay to eat them
In front of a friend who can’t eat them
So please read the label
Before you come and join me
At the peanut-allergy table

Hey, we saved you a seat.  Ahh, this is cool, now…

It’s okay to be peanutty-free
It’s not okay to eat them
In front of a friend who can’t eat them
So please read the label
Before you come and join me
At the peanut-allergy table

Come and tell your friends
I’m never eating tree nuts or peanuts again
Come and tell your friends
Tell them, tell them, tell them, tell them, tell them again

Again, again, again, and again

Pretzel mom
She’ll make change if you need some
Pretzel mom
She’ll give you service with a smile that’s second to none
Oh yeah, all right
She’ll make change if you need some
Oh yeah, all right
She’ll give you service with a smile that’s second to none

He’s my dog, he’s my dog, he’s my dog, he’s my sweet dog

We’re always close, never apart
Lives in my brain, lives in my heart
We were something special right from the start
Love him and I leave him, he’s my dog

He’s my dog, he’s my dog, he’s my dog, he’s my sweet, sweet, sweet, little dog

I come home at night to see if he’s all right, I’ve been gone all day
I come home at night to check if he’s all right, I know he’s okay—good dog

Lick it once, lick it twice, lick your yummy water ice
You’ll get cherry, I’ll get mango
Mom and dad, can we please go?—oh!

Lick it, lick it, lick it, lick it tastes so right
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday night
Saturday and Sunday are terrific to
Grab a cool, refreshing treat for me and you
—please—yum—mmmmm!

It’s a pink guitar (I really can’t believe), it’s a pink guitar

It says Barbie on it, right down the middle
Can you believe it says Barbie on his guitar?

It’s a pink guitar (I really can’t believe), it’s a pink guitar

Now this guitar rocks
I mean he plays it all night—
Listening to the Rolling Stones
Playing along in the mirror

It’s a pink guitar (I really can’t believe), it’s a pink guitar

Now, I like Johnny, I do
But it’s Barbie, I mean Barbie
.…This guy jams like Hendrix at Woodstock

Ooo wahhhooo

Lick it once, lick it twice, lick your yummy water ice
You’ll get cherry, I’ll get mango
Mom and dad, can we please go?—oh!

Lick it, lick it, lick it, lick it tastes so right
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday night
Saturday and Sunday are terrific to
Grab a cool, refreshing treat for me and you
—please—yum—mmmmm!

I’m proud of you, so proud of you
I’m proud of you, and I hope you’re proud of you, too

You’ve been working so hard
Reading books with mom and dad
Each and every night
Unless a bad day they just
So sing it loud, sell hot dogs to the crowd
Sing it loud, sell hot dogs to the crowd

I’m proud of you, so proud of you
I’m proud of you, and I hope you’re proud of you, too

Keep working on it, focus every night and every day
Read 100 books, bronze, silver, gold will come your way
Before you even know it, the day will be here
As a reading Olympian, for you they’re gonna cheer

Sing it loud, sing it, sing it out…

One day my friend came up to me at Pet Smart
Rob, you really should buy booties for your sweetheart
They’ll keep the rock salt off his toes, please…
Your vet will back me up on this—at least his feet won’t freeze

So, I picked out a pair for bus
I slipped the comfy booties on, but boy did Buster fuss
Laying on his back, he kicked me in the eye
My helpful friend at Pet Smart told me, “give it one more try”
“Oh, give it one more try, oh, can’t you give it one more try?”

So I tried 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 more times without hearing him whine
And now its….

Buster’s boots, boots, boots
On his feet, feet, feet
Keep him warm, warm, warm
In the snow, rain, and sleet
When he walks, walks, walks
On the street, street, street
In the winter, summer, spring or fall
He thinks these boots are neat

Take a pause for praise
Take a pause for praise
I bet you’re feeling good
Your choices are the talk of the neighborhood
I see you smiling and sharing with friends
Helping out, hey, on-you-I-can-depend
So kiss your heart and brain
This pause for praise is for you my friend

I have to go to the bathroom
I’m raising my hand, please look at me
I have to go to the bathroom
And h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p

If I stay here, I’ll spill over
And school’s no fun when you’re the only one
School’s no fun when you’re the o-o-o-only one
No school’s no fun when you’re the only one
To be sitting in l, m, n, o, p

…….please, teacher, look over at me

I’ll be your friend
Laugh with me—share the good times
And the bad ones, too

A friend to walk beside you
Can help you see your real you
They say, “Be a friend to make a friend”
And friend, I’m glad I found you

Oh, my aunt came back
From seeing Japan
She brought with her
A waving fan
(Wave left hand like a fan)

Oh, my aunt came back
From seeing Algiers
She brought with her
A pair of shears
(Bring right thumb & finger together & apart)

Oh, my aunt came back
From Guadalupe
She brought with her
A hula-hoop
(Pretend to use a hula-hoop)

Oh, my aunt came back
From the county fair
She brought with her
A rocking chair
(Rock forward and back)

Oh, my aunt came back
From Kalamazoo
She brought with her
A friend like you
(Point to students)

She might sit near you on the bus
She tends to sit when others play
It’s up to you to share just a kind word or two
You just might feel like her one day

Wrinkled Wanda, you’re such a good friend
Wrinkled Wanda, on you I can depend
Wrinkled Wanda, you always make me smile
Wrinkled Wanda, let’s stay friends a long while

Mean words leave a mark
Mean words leave a mark
“I’m sorry” helps, but still there is a mark (or a wrinkle)
Mean words leave a mark

Wrinkled Wanda, you’re such a good friend
Wrinkled Wanda, on you I can depend
Wrinkled Wanda, you always make me smile
Wrinkled Wanda, let’s stay friends a long while

A new and a good, a new and a good

Some might call it a good news share
We want to hear it because we care
Family, friends, movies, school, or pets
Make really great New and Good subjects

A new and a good, a new and a good

We didn’t forget Friday and Saturday
Let’s hear all about your after school play date

A new and a good, a new and a good…

The No Put-Down Zone starts with you
Recruit a friend and another—that’s a few
I don’t want to have to shout it, so I’ll whisper this to you
The No Put-Down Zone starts with you

No, no, no….Put-Down Zone
No, no, no….Put-Down Zone
No, no, no….Put-Down Zone
No, no, no….Put-Down Zone

The No Put-Down Zone starts with YOU!

–left hand
–right foot
–left foot
–hips
–head
On the last time, say “Yes”

Because it’s
Five things to share all about me
Five things to share all about me
Pictures, letters, cards, or shells from New Jersey
And you can even bring your first-place soccer trophy…because

It’s not a her, or a him bag
A he or she or it bag
If you open it you’ll see bag
Alas, it’s a Me Bag

Got to town with this two-letter pronoun

Because it’s
Five things to share all about me
Five things to share all about me
Five things to share all about me
You can even find it under your car seat

As I was walking that ribbon of highway
I saw above me an endless skyway
I saw below me that golden valley
This land was made for you and me

This land is your land
This land is my land
From California
To the New York island
From the Redwood Forest
To the Gulf Stream waters
This land was made for you and me

I roamed and rambled
I followed my footsteps
Through the golden sands of he diamond deserts
And all around me a voice kept sounding
It said “This land was made for you and me.”

This land is your land
This land is my land
From California
To the New York island
From the Redwood Forest
To the Gulf Stream waters
This land was made for you and me

I see trees of green, red roses, too
I see them bloom, for me and you
And I think to myself,
“What a wonderful world.”

I see skies of blue, clouds of white
The bright, blessed day and dark, sacred night
And I think to myself,
“What a wonderful world.”

The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people walking by
I see friends shaking hands, saying “How do you do?”
They’re really saying, “I love you!”

I hear babies cry, I watch them grow
They’ll learn much more then I’ll ever know
And I think to myself, “What a wonderful world!”
Yes, I think to myself, “What a wonderful world!”
And I think to myself, “What a wonderful world!”

The best time of the winter season
Is when I don’t have to devise a clever reason
For not completing homework

My favorite day of the week
Is when the car is piled eight feet deep
In a snow heap

I don’t have to go to school today
On this powdery, crystal, white, delightful snow day

Time for hot cocoa
How can you forget French toast

I can play with all my friends and make forts and snow angels, too
My nose can run and freeze and turn into sharp icicles

So get your snow pants
And Sponge Bob mittens too

Boots and thermal underwear we’ll make snowballs and have no care
Your friends can come if they’re allowed I can’t wait to go sledding

I don’t have to go to school today
On this glittery, quite enticing snow day

I hope my students have fun too
Because tomorrow morning their homework is due

So show me tell me
I don’t care what it is
Show me tell me
Read me those three clues
You brought it in
It must be special to you

Well you put it in a brown bag
And you carried it to your bus stop
And you wrote three clues on your bag
And you brought it all the way from home

It must be special to you
So share those clues with me
It must be special to you
And if it’s special to you
Then it’s special to me too!

So show me tell me
I don’t care what it is
Show me tell me
Read me those three clues
Just give me those three clues
Just give me those three clues
I know I can predict what’s in that bag
So show me and I’ll be happy
You brought it in it must be special to you
And if it’s special to you
Then it’s special to me, too

Buster and Rob are happy together
Buster and Rob are best friends
Loyal to the end
On each other they can depend
Buster and Rob are best friends

Buster had a dog disease called Parvo.  The vet told Andrea he probably wouldn’t make it through surgery.

(Repeat)
Buster and Rob…

Buster survived surgery.  And Rob, a first grade school teacher adopted Buster.  Rob and Buster now live in the suburbs of Philadelphia.  Buster likes to play catch and tug of war with Rob.

Wintertime is fun out in the snow
Buster keeps warm under his red and white smooth short coat
Spring has come at last
They watch the green grass grow
Playing Frisbee in the morning
On the back lawn
The summer catches Buster’s brown eyes glistening…
Then crisp, dry fall leaves crunch under their feet
Like potato chips at lunch
Like potato chips with turkey sandwiches at lunch

Ooo rah ooo…

It’s not up to my dad to do my homework
Or my babysitter from last Friday night
It’s not up to my mom
Or the guy at Kentucky Fried Chicken
It’s up to me!

Responsibility
It’s all up to me
Responsibility
I can depend on me

It’s not the mailman’s job to bring in my folder
Or the lady who smiles and takes my lunch money—Thank you
It’s not a job for my dog, who chews my homework to bits at night
It’s a job for me
Can’t you see I’m responsible for me!

Some people call them mares’ tails
Funny when you think
The next cloud changes shape
You’ll miss it if you blink

It hangs just below cirrus
It’s puffy and on the bottom flat—cumulus!
Finally, let me tell you ‘bout the lowest cloud
Spread dark across the sky just like a blanket over us

It brings rain, thunder, and lightning too, stratus

Sometimes we’re gonna disagree
But if we talk it over
We’re being the best we can b-e

Say hello, goodbye
So I know you’re all right
Thank you, pardon, please, excuse me
Even just listen to me

If you’re doing these things
You’re doing all right
If you’re doing these things
You’re being polite, all right!

P-O-L-I-T-E
Come and be polite with me

Woohoo
Woohoo
Woohoo
Woohoo

I like the way you’re nice to me with a grape juice smile
You’re polite, you write well, you’ve got style

Woohoo
Woohoo
Woohoo
Woohoo

First check with our parents to make sure that it’s cool
For us to study, play, and hang out Thursday after school
If it’s not okay than I will instant message later
I’ll see you at the bus stop fifteen minutes ‘till eight yeah

Woohoo (8X)

Math!  I love to problem solve
Math!  My problems soon dissolve
Math!  I keep a journal handy
Math!

Math!  I use a number line
Math!  My number sense is fine
Math!  I count dimes, nickels, quarters, pennies
Math!

Math!  Drawing helps me understand
Math!  Can count with fingers on my hand
Math!  Estimate and measure
Math!  Singing this song brings me pleasure
Math! Math! Math!…I Love It!

Butterflies in my tummy
See you on Wednesday
My special friend
Hope this won’t end

We’ll share a joke
And munch on Cheetos
Sip on red fruit punch
And laugh until the day goes

Butterflies in my tummy
Making my gray day sunny
My pen pal friend
Hope this won’t ever end

Oh, did I just imagine you
No, you’re a dream come true

When you’re lying in the blazing sun,
Does your skin burn?  I can help rub sunscreen 30 on
Do you need glasses to block those UV rays?
Do you like cats, cause I have two, Siamese with eyes of blue-both strays

Dear Buster, what kind of music do you like?
Next week when I turn 7, I’m picking out a silver, sparkly two-wheel dirt bike
Dear Buster, do you like visiting your vet?
What do you do all day when your dad’s away:
Sleep, eat, or play cards on the Internet?

(Chorus)

(Kazoo)

Dear Buster, please, please answer me
I saw your picture when you were dressed as a pumpkin on Halloween
Oh Dear Buster, please, please write soon
I’ve been waiting since December,
And I hope that you still remember me, me, me!
