If you ever want to find my classroom (at least in the afternoon), it's the one that is full of kids singing. All the time. We sing a hello song, a month song, a days of the week song, a weather song, a clean up song, transition songs, and songs about the topic of the week. When we aren't singing songs as a class, the kids sing songs they know from outside of school.
Some of their favorites lately:
1. Let It Go from Frozen. The song reached it's peak a couple weeks ago, but they still break into the chorus at least once a day. I'm not sure I can take it much longer :)
2. Red Nose by Sage the Gemini. This one is super inappropriate for kids. They only sing "like a red nose" over and over. A couple girls were singing it today and I asked them if their mom's knew they sang that song. They said yes, so I asked them what the song was about. One of them said, "You know that reindeer? He has the red nose? I think he's Rudolph. It's about him dancing. You know, shake it like the red nose."
3. Like Me from Teen Beach Movie. I've never seen it. I feel like it's the modern day High School Musical haha
4. Gas Pedal- another one by Sage the Gemini. Also super inappropriate for kids. They only sing the "gas pedal, gas pedal" part over and over. It creeps me out a little bit when they sing songs like this, but I know they have no idea what they are singing about. They probably think this one is about a car. I remember when I was younger, I would sing along to songs on the radio and thought I knew what the song was about. As I got older, I realized what the songs were really about.
5. Boom Chicka Boom is a song we dance to a couple times a week. They love it and dance to it and it's adorable.
6. Church songs. A bunch of my kids go to the same church and some of the other kids sing the same songs at their churches. They break out in church songs pretty often.
7. Any of these Have Fun Teaching songs. This week, our letter was Q. These songs are catchy and get stuck in my head all the time. I woke up this morning singing, "Q is a constant, a letter in the alphabet!"
I had a kid throw up in my room today. She said she ate too much McDonald's and then started to cry. I got the other kids settled with an activity and then helped the sick little one. As I was calling her grandma to come pick her up, the class burst into a top-of -their-lungs rendition of Let It Go. After hearing that song for the 50 millionth time, I feel like throwing up too :) Haha
