Whole School Sing-Along

It has been a tradition here at Porters Point School to have our annual whole school Sing-Along the last day of school before December break.  This year it will be on Wednesday, December 21 beginning at 1:45 pm.  Seating/space is limited.  Ms. Mutz prepares a Power Point with the song lyrics which encourages the children to read as well as helps everyone learn the words to the songs.  This really is a sing-along, rather than a concert.  All in attendance are encouraged to sing along!

Jump Jim Joe

Jump... Jump... Jump Jim Joe

  
Shake your head, nod your head and tap your toe

Choose another partner and you jump Jim Joe!

Charlie Over the Ocean







Charlie over the ocean

Charlie over the sea

Charlie caught a big fish

But can't catch me!

Way Up High In An Apple Tree

Kindergarten students explored xylophones and metallophones with this poem: 

Way up high in an apple tree
Two little apples
Smiled at me
I shook that tree as hard as I could
Down came the apples
Mmmmmm, were they good!

Can you play and count to eight? 
Can you play and count to eight?
