More Grammar Songs

Here is my latest attempt at Grammar Songs. These are for Unit 5 in the first grade Reading Street Series but could be used by anyone. They're silly but fun...I'm hoping the kids learn something about grammar from them. :)


P.S. I also added a song for adjectives that compare.  It's really Unit 4 but I got a little behind.

Compound Words Shuffle

We are studying compound words this week as our spelling words and I have been trying to come up with some fun ways to practice spelling these challenging words. I woke up this morning with the song "Cupid Shuffle" in my head (don't ask...it all goes back to a workshop I did) and thought what if we did the "Compound Word Shuffle" but danced as we sang and spelled the words. My kids seem to like to move and sing so maybe they will like it.  We'll see...

Check out YouTube for a video on how to do the dance.  I changed it up and used the words "east" and "west" instead of left and right since we're also talking about cardinal directions this week, too. Hey, you have to integrate where you can! :)

Grammar Songs

As the "Queen of Random" I will probably be posting random things that just "pop" into my head (again a side-effect of my undiagnosed ADD :). This year I've created some grammar songs to go along with the grammar skills presented in our Reading Street Series. I've compiled them by units but anyone can use them by just looking through them and pulling out the particular songs you need when you need them. I have three units of songs with 6 songs in each and will be working on one for unit 5. I only have one song for unit 4 because that unit was pretty much just about adjectives and I compiled all the information into one song (feeling a little lazy that unit :). My kids love the songs because I've tried to make them fun and easy for them (and me) to sing.
