Our Class Songs and Prayers
O Canada
O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!
From far and wide, O Canada,
We stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
Our Father
Our Father,
Who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come,
Thy Will be done,
On earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day,
our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those
who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

And always do the things we should.

Good Morning/Afternoon Song
Sung to:
"The Mulberry Bush"
This is the way we start the day, (hold hands in a circle)
Start the day, start the day.
This the way we start the day,
So early in the morning/afternoon.
First we smile and shake a hand, (smile & shake with a friend beside you)
Shake a hand, shake a hand.
First we smile and shake a hand,
So early in the morning.
Then we sit down quietly, (sit down)
Quietly, quietly (whisper when you say "quietly")
Then we sit down quietly,
So early in the morning.
We listen very carefully, (cup hand over ear)
Carefully, carefully.
We listen very carefully
So early in the morning.

Thank you for our snack today

Humphrey The
Blue-Nosed Pumpkin
Sung to:
"Rudolph, The Red-Nosed Reindeer"
You know pumpkins are orange, and grow on a vine,
Baked in a pie, they taste mighty fine,
But have you heard,
Of a pumpkin quite absurd as...?
Humphrey The
Blue-Nosed Pumpkin
Had a very obvious nose (like a blueberry!)
And if you ever saw it
You might even say it showsAll of the other pumpkins
Used to laugh and call him names (like Bluebeak!)
They never let poor Humphrey
Play in any pumpkin games (like checkers!)
Then one foggy Hallow's Eve
The Great Pumpkin did say
"Humphrey, with your nose so
blue
You'll make all the ghosts say BOO!"
Then all the pumpkins loved him,
And they shouted out with glee,
"Humphrey, the
Blue-Nosed Pumpkin,
You'll go down in his-tor-y!
