Action Poem: Grandma's Glasses Fingerplay
These are Grandma's Glasses (make glasses with fingers over eyes)
Here is Grandma's cap (make triangle with hands and put on head)
This is the way she folds her hands (fold hands together)
And puts them in her lap (put hands in lap)
These are Grandma's glasses (make glases with fingers over eyes)
These are grandpa's hat (pretend to pull down a big hat over head)
And this is the way he folds his arms (fold arms over in front of body)
Just like that! (Shake head)

Song: Mary Had a
William Goat Song
Oh, Mary had a William goat
William goat, William goat
And he was lined with zinc.
He followed her to school one day
School one day, school one day
And drank a pint of ink.
Oh, once he ate an oyster can
Oyster can, oyster can
And Mary’s daddy’s shirts
The shirts can do no harm inside
Harm inside, harm inside
The shirts can do no harm inside
But oh! The oyster can!
Rhyme: Giraffe
The spotted giraffe is tall as can be, (raise one arm as high as you can),
The spotted giraffe is tall as can be, (raise one arm as high as you can),
His lunch is a bunch of leaves off a tree,(nibble with fingers of hand of
outstetched arm)
He has a very long neck and his legs are long too,(point to raised arm
and legs)
And he can run faster than his friends at the zoo!
