Sign Language Basics - "Come Down and Play"

On Friday, 9/2/11, the kids and I did sign language to the song, "Comy Down and Play" by Monta Z. Briant and Susan Z. This was a fun literacy activity with movement. The girls seemed to enjoy this the most because they wanted to repeat the song again but the boys were ready to move on. The boys did enjoy learning to sign the bugs: butterfly, ladybug, and bumble bee.

(Bolded words were signed)
Butterfly, Butterfly
Flyin’ up, up, up to the sky
(repeat)
Ladybug, Ladybug
Flyin’ up, up, up above
Ladybug, Ladybug
Come down and play
(repeat)
Bumblebee, Bumblebee
Flyin’ up, up, up in the tree
Come down and play
(repeat)
