| Tune:"Oh My Darling" The Senses Oh, I can see with my eyes, Hear the birds sing in the sky. Feel the warm sun on my nose, Smell the fragrance of a rose. Taste the ice cream off the truck, Oh my senses, help me so much! Oh my senses, oh my senses, Sight, sound, smelling, taste, and touch! Oh my senses, oh my senses, They all help me do so much. Oh my senses, oh my senses, Sight sound, smelling, taste, and touch! Lynda Fabry Rabbits & Hares Rabbits are smaller Hares are taller Rabbits are born with their eyes closed. Hares can see and jump about on the day that they are born. E. Neuville |
| Tune: "Oh When the Saints Go Marching In" Rainbow Oh when it rains and the sun comes out, Oh then there has to be a rainbow about. In the sky, look to the left, look to the right, To see the rainbow big and bright. Anon. |
| Tune: The Farmer in the Dell The Flower The roots go down, down, down. The stem goes up, up,up. The leaves branch out, the blossom pops, The flower blooms in spring. Mary Abbott Fall The leaves are falling down, The leaves are falling down, Red, orange, yellow, green and brown, The leaves are falling down. Anon. |
| Tune: Itsy Bitsy Spider Evaporation The many drops of water, Come out the water spout. Put it on the stove When you've filled up the pot. When the water boils It bubbles and it pops. That's evaporation! What do you think of that? Mary Smith (St. John, Bay City) |
| Tune: "Three Blind Mice" States of Matter What is matter? What is matter? A solid, liquid, or gas. A solid, liquid, or gas. It takes up space and weighs something too! It's everywhere that includes me and you. Did you ever think such a thing could be true? That is matter. That is matter. Anon. Windy Day Windy day, windy day. I like to see trees bend and sway. It also blows your skirts and hats, It dries wet clothes and knocks signs down flat. You can't see, touch,or taste but feel it blow, Windy day. Anon. |
| Tune: Are You Sleeping? Tyranosaurus Tyranosaurus, Tyranosaurus He's a carnivore, He's a carnivore. Carnivores eat meat, plants they don't eat. Tyranosaurus, Tyranosaurus Anon. |
| Tune: "The Farmer in the Dell" Michigan Seasons The seasons come and go, Sometimes it seems so slow. Hi Ho, it's Michigan The seasons come and go. It's winter, it's so cold, the wind is sometimes bold. Hi Ho, it's Michigan The seasons come and go. Spring is rainy and wet, It's not summer yet! Hi Ho, it's Michigan The seasons come and go. Summer is sunny and hot, I play outside a lot. Hi Ho, it's Michigan The seasons come and go. Fall is back to school, I see my friends, that's cool! Hi Ho it's Michigan The seasons come and go.

| Frog Life Cycle The frog lives in a bog, She lays an egg in the slog.(slough) The egg grows into a tadpole, Swimming around in a hole. He has a tail and gills, He never stays still. His tail gets smaller as he grows, Soon he has back legs with webbed toes. Then front legs begin to sprout. His lungs develop and help him shout! Soon the tadpole has grown into a frog. Now he can hop onto a log. (children can dramatize this poem with swimming, growing, shouting, hopping) Beverly Hayhurst |
| Ice/Water to "ABC's Tune" A little thing you'll learn about ice, Is how it changes when its warmed up nice. You'll soon have water- drip, drip, drip. Oh NO, it's MUD, Watch out, don't slip! And if it gets cold that water will freeze... Be careful you don't fall on your knees. Dawn Ress |
| See Ya Later, Incubator to:"Turkey in the Straw" Oh I had a little egg and I wanted it to hatch, So I put in an incubator and I locked the latch. Oh we had to wait for 21 days to ever see a pip, Then little chicky #1 was out, "WOW, what a trip!" See ya later, incubator, Cuz you kinda cramped my style. See ya later, incubator, I won't be back for quite a while. See ya later, incubator, Don't 'cha love my chicky smile? See ya later, incubator, I won't be back for quite a while. The Bracher Family |
