In the Field Stood a Birch Tree

Posted by birdmanprice on

1. See the lovely birch in the meadow,
Curly leaves all dancing when the wind blows.
Loo-lee-loo, when the wind blows,
Loo-lee-loo, when the wind blows.

2. Oh, my little tree, I need branches,
For the silver flutes I need branches.
Loo-lee-loo, three branches,
Loo-lee-loo, three branches.

3. From another birch I will make now,
I will make a tingling balalaika.
Loo-lee-loo, balalaika,
Loo-lee-loo, balalaika.

4. When I play my new balalaika,
I will think of you, my lovely birch tree.
Loo-lee-loo, lovely birch tree,
Loo-lee-loo, lovely birch tree.

How to Make an Origami Puppet (Bird Beak)

Posted by birdmanprice on

You can male two “Bird Beaks” and hold them in each hand while you sing Bob Marley’s Three Little Birds. You are one of the birds and the two puppets make three.

Watch this video and see if you can follow the steps and make your own Bird Beak. Origami can sometimes be challenging, so please ask an adult for help if you run into problems.

After you make your two birds, record a video of you sing Three Little Birds in Seesaw.

Here’s the link to the song:

West African Polyrhythms

Posted by birdmanprice on

Try playing these rhythms by clapping your hands or with anything that makes a sound by tapping, shaking, etc.

Teach a friend the rhythm you learned to play and then learn to play a different rhythm that you can play with your friend. Record the two different rhythms together in Seesaw.

You may do this and/or sing with Dideo with the video that’s in your Seesaw lesson.
