We have songs for you to sing
For this song we were given a very specific brief!
It was for kids aged around 8 or 9 years old and it had to include:
a) 12 regular simple past tense verbs:
appeared, asked, disappeared, landed, liked, listened, looked,
opened, played, stayed, walked and watch (!!!).
b) past tense questions and negative phrases.
c) animals (that bit was easy!)
d) the time; specifically, half past the hour.
This is what we wrote:
I didn’t see you, you disappeared.
What did you do yesterday?
I didn’t see you, you disappeared.
What did you do yesterday?
I walked round the zoo with a kangaroo
We looked at the cheetahs and the tigers too.
We played the drums with an old brown shoe
We didn’t go home till half past two.
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la yesterday
I didn’t see you, etc…
I watched TV in a mango tree
A wizard appeared with a chimpanzee
We listened to the songs on my new CD
We didn’t come down till half past three.
La la la la la la la la etc…
I didn’t see you, etc…
An eagle landed at my front door
He stayed for lunch, he likes sweet corn
He opened his beak and he asked for more
He didn’t stop eating till half past four.
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la yesterday
