I did this program with first graders.
Pop Goes the Weasel
Hush Little Baby
Betty Botter (chant)
Betty Botter bought some butter
But she said the butter's bitter,
"If I put it in my batter
It will make my batter bitter,
But a bit of better butter
Will make my batter better."
So she bought some better butter
Better than the bitter butter,
And she put it in her batter
And her batter was not bitter,
So 'twas better Betty Botter
Bought a bit of better butter.
But she said the butter's bitter,
"If I put it in my batter
It will make my batter bitter,
But a bit of better butter
Will make my batter better."
So she bought some better butter
Better than the bitter butter,
And she put it in her batter
And her batter was not bitter,
So 'twas better Betty Botter
Bought a bit of better butter.
There’s a Neat Little Clock (chant)
There's a neat little clock,
In the schoolroom it stands,
And it points to the time
With it's two little hands.
In the schoolroom it stands,
And it points to the time
With it's two little hands.
And may we, like the clock,
Keep a face clean and bright,
With hands ever ready
To do what is right.
Keep a face clean and bright,
With hands ever ready
To do what is right.
