The Songs We Sing in Mr. Mitchell’s K Class on 11/2/2012
Posted on: November 3, 2012
It was so fun seeing the Ks of Mr. Mitchell’s class today.

Mr. Mitchell had this terrific book sitting on the bookshelf and so we sang a few Mother Goose Rhymes (including “London Bridges” and “Sing a Song of Sixpence”)

We talked about the fact that when we sing together next week, we will know who our next president will be…will I be changing this book or keeping it the same? It’s a real nail biter…
