Cut a school bus
out of yellow poster board similar to the one shown. Add magnetic tape to the back and place it on a magnetic
board. Put magnetic letters in the
window as you sing the song.
The
Letters on the Bus
(Tune: “The Wheels on the Bus”)
The
letters on the bus all make their sounds,
Make
their sounds,
Make
their sounds.
The
letters on the bus all make their sounds
All
around the town.
The
B on the bus goes /b/ /b/ /b/, /b/ /b/ /b, /b/ /b/ /b/,
The
B on the bus goes /b/ /b/ /b/ all around the town.
*Use
the bus for phonics lessons to demonstrate CVC words, silent ‘e’, etc.
Thanks to Iris
Nieves for translating the song into Spanish!
El Camion de

/a/ /a/ por la
carretera etc...

I have a very similar one that I sing:
ReplyDeleteTune: The Wheels on the Bus
The B on the bus says
/b/ /b/ /b/
/b/ /b/ /b/
/b/ /b/ /b/
The B on the bus says
/b/ /b/ /b/
That's the letter B.
You can change out all of the letters and the sounds.
I have written this on a laminated chart and I have taught my students how to fill in the blanks with a new letter and use pointers to sing and read. It is a class favorite all year since we sing it every day for the first four weeks of school as we introduce a letter each day.
Then we even make a class book where each child builds a bus out of construction paper shapes and then adds a letter by painting it with a large letter stamp. After bound, it becomes a class favorite and they read and sing the song all year.
Thanks for sharing your way.
