Do
you get tired of children saying, “Teacher, teacher!” the first few days of
school. This song will enable them
to learn the name of their teacher, school, principal, as well as their
community, city, state, and country.
Take
photographs of yourself, the principal, the school, your community, and so
forth. Glue pictures to construction
paper and write a verse similar to those below on each page. Sing the words to the tune of “The
Wheels on the Bus.”
The
name of my school is (school’s name), (school’s name), (school’s name).
The
name of my school is (school’s name).
That’s
the name of my school.
The
name of my teacher is (teacher’s name), (teacher’s name),
(teacher’s name)…
The name of my principal is…
The name of my librarian is…
The name of my P.E. teacher is…
Hint! Include social studies concepts so
children learn the name of your mayor, governor, the President, your continent,
etc.
I love the song and class book idea!!! As always, THANKS for sharing!!

This book was a huge hit with my class! We turned it into a PowerPoint and then converted it to a movie and put it at the student computers so not only did we practice it together in whole group but they could also choose to sing it at the computer center. Thanks so much for your fabulous ideas!
