The Popcorn Hop

  

The Popcorn Hop

By Stephanie Calmenson

Put your popcorn in a pot.
Wait till it gets really hot.
When you start to feel the heat,
Listen for the popcorn beat:
Pop-pop-POP-pop,
pop-pop-POP!
Come and do the popcorn hop!

I Have a Little Dreidel

I have a little dreidel,

I made it out of clay.

When it's dry and ready,

Then dreidel I shall play.

Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel,

Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel,

Then dreidel I shall play.

O Canada

We are trying to learn all of the words to O Canada -- it's really hard to explain what all of the words mean to a group a 5-7 year olds!

 

O Canada!

Our home and native land!

True patriot love in all thy sons command.

With glowing hearts we see thee rise,

The True North strong and free!

From far and wide,

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

God keep our land glorious and free!

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
