Corner Grocery Store

Ok... this is the second class of our Fall K-class... My faithful assistant, Yun-Yun "Yak"agrees with me that this is the best k-class we have ever had. Today we worked on a new song where we had to rhyme. Listen for the verse that we chose to sing even when it does not rhyme just because we thought it was so cool.... enjoy

We have the best Kindergarten class. We are learning new songs every week. Here is a new song that we only learned in class today. Enjoy!

We have a wonderful new class for the spring session of our after school program. We have 13 terrific kindergartners who are really doing a great job of singing and learning new songs. This is our very first video, enjoy...

"This Land is Your Land" with hand motions!

At Class this past week we learned "This Land is Your Land" with hand motions. Before we could record the song we had to make sure everyone knew the hand motions. The kids caught on fast but we did have to work a little with our trusted assistant "Ruhi." After one lesson the Kindergarten kids gave Ruhi an A+++ on her test! Ruhi was very excited. So watch and enjoy... but remember... there will be a test... there always is in life :)
