This week in field we taught every day except Monday. We also did our song this week. Our song is:
Utah has a history
and some of it may be new
learning can be lots of fun
It's time to review!
Utah has specific things
that help set it apart,
Bees, elk and copper too
plus Kolff designed a heart!
The Wasatch Mountains
cross the state
oldest rocks in the west
They bring water for us to drink
Our mountains are the best!
We have the great salt lake
full of brine and salt
when the pioneers arrived
their journey they did halt
Utah you are beautiful
sucha great sight to see
Utah how we love you so
and your geography!
We made the song go to the tune of Yankee Doodle. We made copies for each student and also put it on the smart board so they could look up at the board if they wanted to do that. We sang it for them first without the music. Then they sang it with us. Then we tried it with the music. It was quite fast in the beginning, but we did it a few more times and then picked our two favorite verses for them to learn. The kids really enjoyed singing the song and now I know why we were taught about music and the kind of effect it can have onchildren. It was really fun and they wanted to keep singing it.
