Songs of the Week

I have lots of favorite songs that aren't on this list that we sing, but these are the highlighted Songs of the Week. I use a new song each week that relates to concepts we are learning or will be introducing soon. I have included the CD where I found the song. We sing along with the CD and I have charts with the lyrics or the chorus to follow for language support. I included a list of my favorite CD's at the bottom of the page. Click the links to find where you can get a copy of your own.

Each month on the last Friday, we have a Family Fun Friday event and invite our families to join us for activities the last hour of the day. We start our family activities with a circle and sing the songs that we have learned during the month. The parents have an opportunity to see how their child participates with the group and younger siblings can join our circle and sing along. I include the lyrics for the songs in my weekly newsletter that goes home at the beginning of the week so that the families can reinforce the songs.
