THE ALPHABET IN MY MOUTH(Tune: “He’s Got the Whole World in His Hands”)
I’ve got the whole alphabet in my mouth,
I’ve got the whole alphabet in my mouth.
I’ve got the whole alphabet in my mouth
and I can read!
I’ve got A - /a/ /a/ in my mouth
I’ve got B - /b/ /b/ in my mouth
I’ve got C - /c/ /c/ in my mouth
AndI can read!
I’vegot D….
I’vegot all the sounds in my mouth and I’m ready to read!
The children will LOVE making this book togo with the song. First, take aclose up digital photo of each child with their mouth wide open. Enlarge the picture and glue it to asheet of paper. Next, cut lettersout of construction paper and glue to the tongue on their picture. Write words for each page to go withthe picture, such as “I’ve got D /d//d/ in my mouth.”Hint! If you don’t have 26 students, then use the principal, secretary,custodian, etc. to complete the letters in the alphabet.
