Week 1

Morning verse

The sun with loving light

Makes bright for me each day.

The soul with spirit power gives strength unto my limbs.

In sunlight shining clear,

I reverence oh God,

The strength of humankind

That thou so graciously has planted in my soul

That I, with all my might,

May love to work and learn.

From thee come light and strength,

To thee rise love and thanks.

riddles

Monday's riddle:

I cover something that is cold and hard

And make it soft and warm.

But still people step all over me.

What do you think it might be?

Tuesday's riddle:

Clippers I can cut with,

Clippers I can grab with.

I don't have any hands at all,

But eight legs to crawl and swim.

Wednesday's riddle:

I have two long legs and two pointed feet,

Get two from one when my legs meet!

Thursday's riddle:

Like a flattened-out doughnut on the bottom,

Like an upside-down cup at the top,

You can carry me with you everywhere

And I cover up your stringy growing crop.

Friday's riddle:

Sometimes I draw straight lines,

Sometimes I draw curve lines.

I Always draw on the biggest blue paper,

And I use white chalk all the time.

I'm bigger than a house,

But when you see me write,

I'm smaller than a mouse.

tongue twisters

Swing

Swing, swing and sing as we swing,

our voices will ring

if we sing as we swing

and we swing as we sing!

Splish, Splosh

Splish, splosh, splish, splosh!

Through the puddles Tim is splashing.

Splish, splosh, splish, splosh!

Soon his socks will need a washing!

Timothy Titus

Timothy Titus took two tees

to tie two tubs to two tall trees

to terrify terrible Thomas a Tattermus!

bean bag exercises

Jack and Jill...

bean bag exercises.mp4

Jack and Jill went up the hill

To fetch a pail of water.

Jack fell down and broke his crown

And Jill came tumbling after.

Up Jack got and home did trot,

As fast as he could caper;

Went to bed to mend his head

With vinegar and brown paper.

Two squirrels did run around a tree.

They chased their tales most merrily.

They chased their tails into a blur

Whose tail was whose they were not sure.

Did you ever see a rainbow

On a lovely winter's day?

After it's been raining early on a misty Monday?

Out of a cloud it comes near

And then it gradually disappears.

Down the waterfall.

Down from the farthest heights.

Down o'er slippery stones.

Down with watery might.

Splash the water's foam.

Crash the water's home.

Flash the water's gone.

Proud prancing ponies parade in a line.

Not hurried , not worried each stepping in time.

Their backs they hold proudly, their backs straight and strong,

Each stepping so lively as they march along.

Whisky, frisky, hippety hop,

Up he runs to the tree top.

Whirly, furly, round and round,

Down he scampers to the ground.

Furly curly what a tail,

Tall as a feather, broad as a sail.

Where's his supper? in the shell.

Snappy, cracky out it fell.
