Global Warming & School Programs



I heard there was a local rally of those against global warming last night in the Seattle area. That explains the heavy snowfall...


Because of the snow last night, school was 90 minutes late again today. I ended up testing in one school (syncopated & straight rhythms to 'Rats for Lunch' by Jack Prelutsky) The kids loved singing this one to the Lunch Lady at school.


part 1: Rats for lunch, rats for lunch, Yum delicious munch, munch, munch.

One by one, or by the bunch, Rats, oh rats oh rats for lunch.


part 2: Rats we love you steamed or stewed, boiled baked or barbequed

Pickled, poached or fried in fat, there is nothing like a rat.



Yes, this is part of our adopted curriculum. No, It's not one of Tom's favorites.


At another school we practiced for our upcoming program E-I-E-I-Oops! It's all about a barnyard full of animals singing Old MacDonald had a Farm, except that the cow won't MOO. It takes them a while to figure out why. Cute Songs, check 'em out on this web site...


20 2nd grade girls singing Cute Chicks! (with choreography on stage) is adorable.
