The sky is up, The ground is down, But if you take a look around There are other ways to go, Left and right are what you need to know. Hold up your hands And reach your fingers to the sky, Point your thumbs in, Do you wanna know why? Well the hand that makes an L Is the left one. The other is the right, And now you’re halfway done. Stretch your arms to your sides As far as they can go. Look at your left hand And you will know, That this way is left, And the other way is right, You are learning your directions, And that is outta sight!

I can tie my shoes, do you wanna see? I can tie my shoes independently. First I make a criss-cross, in the air, Then loop one end under there. Pull both laces nice and tight, Make one loop that has a tail just like a kite. Now I take the other string and wrap it round the loop, Guide it through the hole, and that’s the scoop. Now I’ve got two loops, so I’ll pull them snug, All I really need is a little tug. Repeat these steps for the other shoe, Oh I can tie my shoes, and you can too!

At breakfast lunch and dinner, Right before we eat, We have to set the table, The rules are short and sweet: First comes the plate, it’s big and round: Take it out of the cupboard and set it down. Next comes the fork, everyone knows: To the left of the plate is where it goes. After that the knife and spoon: To the right of the plate, we’ll be using soon. Last are napkins and a cup, Now our table is set so let’s eat up! At breakfast lunch and dinner, Right before we eat, We have to set the table, The rules are short and sweet!

Out in the field in a row of corn, Stands a scarecrow so forlorn. Crows on his head and crows on his feet, He's the saddest scarecrow you'll ever meet. Can't scare the crows, oh no no! Can't scare the crows, oh no no! Crows on his head and crows on his feet, He's the saddest scarecrow you'll ever meet. Out in the field in a row of corn, Stands a scarecrow so forlorn. Crows on his elbows and crows on his knees, The scarecrow's even scared of a little breeze. Can't scare the crows, oh no no! Can't scare the crows, oh no no! Crows on his elbows and crows on his knees, The scarecrow's even scared of a little breeze. Out in the field in a row of corn, Stands a scarecrow so forlorn. Crows on his nose and crows on his ears, The scarecrow's crying scarecrow tears. Can't scare the crows, oh no no! Can't scare the crows, oh no no! Crows on his nose and crows on his ears, The scarecrow's crying scarecrow tears.

There are four little coins in my pocket, Each one has its own name. These four little coins are all money, but their values are not the same. A penny is copper in color. Small, thin and round, you see. Abraham Lincoln is the face on this coin, One cent for you and me. CHORUS A nickel is silver in color. Small, fat and round, you see. Thomas Jefferson is the face on this coin, Five cents for you and me. CHORUS A dime is silver in color. Small, thin and round, you see. Franklin D. Roosevelt is the face on this coin, Ten cents for you and me. CHORUS A quarter is silver in color. Big, thin and round, you see. George Washington is the face on this coin, Twenty-five cents for you and me. There are four little coins in my pocket, Now you know each one's name. What it looks like and how much each one is worth, Because their values are not the same.

I wanna sing about a shape That I can’t get outta my head. It has four sides, yes four, that’s what I said. Rhombus, you’re one of a kind, So tell me would you mind, Oh could you, help me Rhombus, Help me learn what you are. Help me Rhombus, help help me, Rhombus. (5x) Help me Rhombus, yea, I wanna learn what you are. Well a rhombus and a diamond, They look the very same. One single shape that goes by two different names. We use the word Rhombus at school, Diamond is a nickname that’s cool, Oh could you, help me Rhombus, Help me learn what you are. CHORUS A rhombus has 4 pointy angles that connect its sides. Just like a kite, in the air up high it flies. Rhombus, I can illustrate, Your shape, and I’d appreciate, If you could, help me Rhombus, Help me learn who you are. CHORUS
