Apple Dramatics

Apple Dramatics

Have the students create apple puppets with an apple cutout and a popsicle stick. Have them sing the following song while five students at a time act it out. As each one is eliminated, they sit down.
Sung to "Five Little Monkeys"

Five little apples swinging in a tree
I sure wish one would fall to me
One fell down
And hit the ground
Now how many apples do you see?

Keep singing until all apples have fallen.

Apples

(sung to tune of "Are you Sleeping?")

Picking apples
picking apples
one by one
one by one
Put them in a basket
Put them in a basket
Oh what fun!
Oh what fun!

Apple Song

Apples, Apples
(Tune: "Twinkle, Twinkle")

Apples juicy, apples round,
On the tree or on the ground.
Apples yellow, apples red,
Apple pie and juice and bread!
Apples crunchy, apples sweet,
Apples are so good to eat!

If your ready for a story

Tune: “If You’re Happy And You Know It”

If you’re ready for a story, come sit down.
If you’re ready for a story, come sit down.
Let’s all gather near, so everyone can hear.
If you’re ready for a story, come sit down.

Surprise Apron

Tune: “The More We Get Together”

Something’s in my pocket, my pocket, my pocket.
Something’s in my pocket, oh what could it be?
Come and join me.
Then everyone will see.
What’s in my pocket, oh what could it be?
Jean Warren
(Teacher wears an apron with large pockets, where she hides a surprise.)

Making cookies chant

First we add the butter and we mash it, mash it.
Then we add the sugar and we blend it, blend it.
Then we add the eggs and we whip it, whip it.
Then we add the flour and we stir it, stir it.
Then we make a ball and we roll it, roll it.
Then we choose a cutter and we cut it, cut it.
Then we set out a cookie sheet and we place it, place it.
Then we bake it in the oven and we smell it, smell it.
Then we set it on a rack and we cool it, cool it.
Then we pop it in our mouth and we eat it, eat it.

gingerbread man

Gingerbread, gingerbread, Gingerbread Man,
I'm going to make you, if I can.
I'll stir the ingredients in one by one.
Then I'll roll out the dough, oh what fun!

Next, I'll press a cookie cutter, down in the dough,
Then , put you on a baking sheet, just like so.
Next, I'll bake you in the oven until you're done.
Then, set you on the counter and watch you run.
Run, run Gingerbread Man
But I'll catch you, if I can.
Then, I'll eat you, yum, yum, yum.
You'll taste good, in my tum!
