The Leaves are Green
Kindergarteners are playing a fall-themed circle game called "The Leaves are Green." Just like a fingerplay, this type of song helps us to understand the form of a song, performing different motions for different parts of the song.
See the lyrics to this song below:
The leaves are green,
The nuts are brown.
They hang so high,
They won't fall down.
Leave them alone 'til frosty weather.
And they'll all fall down together!
We walk around in a circle with hands joined and love to fall down at the end of the song!
Hear Mrs. Armington's class sing this song in the video below:
Did your child sing this song to you from their "Ask Me" sheet? Fill out this quick form to tell Miss Dagenais that your child is singing at home!
