Songs in the Classroom!

November 17, 2014 misskindergarten 7 Comments

Why hello there! Long time no speak! I sure meant to share my Songs in the Classroom update with you a few months ago, but a new school year, wedding planning, and moving into a new house just seemed to get in the way! But here we are, so it’s all good 😉
Do you use songs in your classroom?? I am OBSESSED. I make up songs all day long! Well I put this little booklet together and hung it on a ring, but I don’t even look at it because I have all the songs memorized 😉 HA!
I did add little number tabs to each section so that they’re easier to find.
I also wanted to show you an easier way to organize these songs {since clearly time is of the essence these days!} You can print off each page, stick them in a page protector and store them all in a 3-ring binder.
Here’s a look at each section in the book.
These are songs I use throughout the day, especially during transitions. The best way to grab your students’ attention and get them to stop talking is to sing a song. They ALWAYS sing along, so eyes are on you and conversations have stopped. It’s miraculous 😉
Section Two is all about Calendar Time. We sing the whole time 😉 #favoritetimeoftheday
{you can read all about how we run calendar time here}
Section Three has fun songs to help your students practice vowel sounds, learning new words and spelling sight words.
I numbered each page so I can find the songs I need quickly. When we have a few extra minutes before snack we usually sing a word wall song. My kiddos love it!
I also created a whole separate section just for color words. Each color word song comes with visual cards that you can have a student leader point to while you are singing the song.
So the last few weeks, we’ve been working on word families! I made up this really fun song that I wanted to share with you. First, I asked my students to come up with words in the “at” family and wrote 6 of them on the board. Then we sang our song, to the tune of The Addams Family 😉
Each time we learn a new word family, we will think of 6 words and put them in our song!
Hope you are able to use some of these ideas!

You can find my Songs in the Classroom pack here on TpT!

I’m working really hard to learn as much as I ca I’m working really hard to learn as much as I can about discrimination and racism and how to help teach my own daughters and my students how to continue making a change and moving in the right direction. I’m still learning. I make mistakes, and I learn more and more every single day. @misselgendy shared this post from @halpey1 and it really resonated with me. I thought it showed a great way to get your students involved in how they can help, not just on MLK day, or during Black History Month, but every day. Sometimes as a teacher and as an “influencer”, I feel pressured to do and say things that I’m not 100% confident with, but I’m learning. Just like I tell my students, continue to learn and continue to try your best. ❤️❤️❤️

Anyone else obsessed with center manipulatives!? 🤣 I shared my favorite ones that we use with our math and literacy centers (and most of them work for both!) on my most recent blog post. You can visit the link in my profile to check it out. 💃🏼

What’s your all time favorite manipulative? I love how @playfullykindergarten uses and stores her mini erasers too!
