1st grade Handwork verses for the first month

These are my hands as you can see, this is my left and this is my right. I can stretch them out wide and pull them in close. I can reach them up high and hang them down low. I can shake them up and hold them quite still. These are my hands they do as I will.

SONG:
Two jolly grandfathers meet in the lane
Bow most politely, bow once again
How do you do, and how do you do, and how do you do again
Two first graders meet in the land etc
Two tall farmers meet in the lane etc
Two shepherd girls meet in the lane etc
Two wooly sheep meet in the lane etc

SONG:
Come, come away, come, come away this is a very fine summers day
Come away come away come.

Pea Pod
Seed Pod
Bean Pod and
Poppy Pod
Split when they ripen and
open with the pop

SONG AND GAME
Old king glory on the mountain, the mountain was so high that he nearly touched the sky and its one two three follow me…………..and we all bow down to the mountain.

VERSE
My fingers are so sleepy, It's time they went to bed. First you Little Baby, Tuck in your tiny head. Ruby Ring, now it's your turn. Next comes Toby Great. Peter Pointer hurry Because it's getting late. Let's see if they're all nestled, No! - there's one to come, Move over please and make room For Tommy Thumb.


Our time for now has ended. Our hands may come to rest. We thank our hands both left and right, for helping us to do our best.
