Title: Shoo Turkey!
About: We learned about call and response or conversation singing! One person/group sings words in black. Another person/group sings words in orange. This is NOT an echo but a call and response!
Words: Little girl, Little boy?…………..yes ma’am!
Did you go to the barn?..............yes ma’am!
Did you see my turkey? ..............yes ma’am!
Well is my turkey gone? ..............yes ma’am!
Which way did he go? ..............so, so!
Will you help me catch him? ..............yes ma’am!
Title: Turkey Feathers
About: This song taught us about call and Response singing. We played a game with colored turkey feathers! You get to sing solo if you have a turkey feather!
Words: (Everyone) Turkey, Turkey where’s your hair?
Feathers missing you’re so bare!
Turkey, Turkey where’s your hair?
Feathers missing you’re so bare!

Songs for Beat Keeping:
Title: Aiken Drum
About: A funny song for beat keeping!
Words: There was a man lived in the moon
Lived in the moon, lived in the moon.
There was a man lived in the moon
And his name was Aiken Drum
His head was made of an apple
An apple, an apple
His head was made of an apple
And his name was Aiken Drum...
Body was made of a pickle...
Legs were made of celery...
Arms were made of bananas...
Eyes were made of cherries...
Nose was made of carrots....
Mouth was made of a rainbow...
Hair was made of spaghetti...
