"Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed" is a fun counting song for children. It introduces the concept of simple subtraction to young learners. The repetitive verses in the song allow students to learn the song really quickly. As the little monkeys fall out of the bed, young learners count the number of little monkeys jumping on the bed.

The Wheels On The Bus

I know my last upload was of my first grade class, but they just yield a lot of adorable moments. On this day, I was teaching all about the letter, U. It was a fun day, we played limbo (Under) and we colored the US flag. I guess that was not weird. I thought it would be because I think nationalism is pretty strong in Korea. I took some pictures. I also introduced the word, "Ukulele" to them.

Clair, my awesome neighbor, let me borrow her ukulele. I wanted to try and give my students a  one time only, intimate, live performance of some all-time favorite classics of theirs like "Phonics Song 2" and "BINGO." 

I've never had my own ukulele to learn to play, and I had just sliced my finger open a few days earlier. So, playing the ukulele was difficult. Luckily, both songs are no more than 4 chords. 

I thought the students would be thrilled that I was singing and playing an instrument, but it was kind of like, "Ah yes. Ukulele starts with U. Makes perfect sense." 

I love the phonics song, and the YouTube channel it's from, KIDSTV123 has been a never ending resource (and time filler) for my first grade class who learns one letter a week. I recommend their L song and Big Numbers Song almost legitimately for easy listening. 

I mess up a little bit. There are a lot of letters, man.
