- Mary Had a Little Lamb (August)
Mary had a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb Mary had a little lamb
Whose fleece was white as snow.
And everywhere that Mary went, Mary went, Mary went, And everywhere that Mary went the lamb was sure to go!
It followed her to school one day, school one day, school one day, It followed her to school one day which was against the rules.
- Baa Baa Black Sleep (September)
Baa, baa, black sheep, have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full!
One for the master,
One for the dame,
And one for the little boy
Who lives down the lane
Baa, baa, black sheep,
Have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir
Three bags full
Finger Plays
- Five Little Colorful Birds (September)
(Use your fingers to represent the birds)
Five little colorful birds, hoping by the door,
The red one went to build a nest, then there were four.
Four little colorful birds singing happily,
The blue one got out of tune, and then there were three.
Three little colorful birds, and what should one do,
The yellow one went to search for dinner, leaving only two.
Two little colorful birds, singing for fun,
The green one flew away, and then there was one.
One little black bird sitting in the sun,
He took a little nap, and then there was none.
