Last week I had a horrible case of bronchitis. Excuse the bad singing. It's usually always pretty bad, but especially this week because I still haven't fully got my voice back. There's a song that I taught to my own class a few weeks ago called "Vowel Bingo." It's to the tune of "Bingo" and instead of saying B-I-N-G-O, you sing A-E-I-O-U. It's super cute and it was a great way for them to remember their vowels. Since I needed to reteach the song a different way so that they were saying the sound the vowels made, I killed two birds with one stone and used this as my song teaching blog as well. For my melodic contour map I made the shapes of the vowels with my hands so that they would remember which letter went with each sound. We are making the song part of their daily routine now during calendar in the morning. They like to sing and dance and I like it when they can remember which letters make which sounds!
