OVER THE RIVER AND THROUGH THE WOODS

Over the river and through the woods to Grandmothers house we go.The horse knows the way to carry the sleigh through the white anddrifted snow. Over the river and through the woods, oh, how the wind

does blow! It stings the toes and bites the nose as over the ground wego.

IM A LITTLE TEAPOT/ IM A LITTLE SNOWMAN

Im a little teapot short and stout. Here is my handle, here is my spout.When the waters boiling, hear me shout, Tip me over, pour me out!

TWINKLE, TWINKLE, LITTLE STAR

Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are. Up above the

world so high, like a diamond in the sky. Twinkle, twinkle, little star,how I wonder what you are.When the blazing sun is set, and the grass with dew is wet. Then youshow your little light, twinkle, twinkle all the night. Twinkle, twinkle littlestar, how I wonder what you are.Then the traveler in the dark thanks you for your tiny spark. How couldhe see where to go if you did not twinkle so? Twinkle, twinkle little star,how I wonder what you are.As your bright and tiny spark lights the traveler in the dark, though I

know not what you are, twinkle, twinkle, little star. Twinkle, twinkle, littlestar, how I wonder what you are.

MARY HAD A LITTLE LAMB

Mary had a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb. Mary had a little lamb, itsfleece was white as snow.And everywhere that Mary went. Mary went. Mary went. And

everywhere that Mary went, the lamb was sure to go.It followed her to school one day, school one day, school one day. Itfollowed her to school one day, which was against the rule.It made the children laugh and play, laugh and play, laugh and play. Itmade the children laugh and play to see the lamb at school.And so the teacher sent it out, sent it out, sent it out. And so theteacher sent it out, but still it lingered near.It stood and waited round about, round about, round about. It stoodand waited round about, till Mary did appear.Why does the lamb love Mary so, Mary so, Mary so? Why does thelamb love Mary so? the little children cry.
