Toothy Tuesday

Good afternoon,

And another fun, if slightly more disrupted day was had by all in Room 2.

Just as we were about to head back to class after morning tea, the burglar alarm was tripped (Room 1 was being wired up at the time), so we lined up for the first of two (and a bit) fire drills within the space of an hour.
Ok, false alarm, so back in for phonics, then out again for fitness...


...(running along Wyn St today - note: we are finessing in our Reading Interchange classes, not our, well, Class classes...), when the fire alarm went off, so we trotted back to school for a head count, then back out, then back to class, then out again for another false alarm before White Group got together to perform their play from yesterday.

Things settled down after lunch with some J Team singing in Room 2 where we learned/practiced a new song - Wobbly Tooth! It was lots of fun!)...

Wobbly Tooth

Verse 1:
I’ll tell you little story ’bout when I was young,
About a wobbly tooth stickin’ out of my gum.
It wobbled to the left (ow!)
Wobbled to the right (ow!)
It wasn’t comin’ out without puttin’ up a fight.

Chorus:
It was a wobbly tooth.
It was a wobbly tooth.
Whoa, mumma – get that wobbly tooth!

Verse 2:
Dad said, “Hey! Come on, mosey over here.
Tie that pearly white to the leg of this chair.”
Boogie to the left (ow!)
Boogie to the right (ow!)
It wasn’t comin’ out without puttin’ up a fight.

Chorus

Verse 3:
Mum said, “Whoa! That ain’t the way to go.
Grab a pair of pliers and I’ll show you what I know.”
Twist it to the left (ow!)
Twist it to the right (ow!)
It wasn’t comin’ out without puttin’ up a fight.

Chorus

Verse 4:
Grandad Bill said, “Come down to my farm.
I’ll pull it out with the tractor if you hold onto the barn!”
Hoon it to the left (ow!)
Hoon it to the right (ow!)
It wasn’t comin’ out without puttin’ up a fight.

Chorus

Verse 5:
The Tooth Fairy came and he pulled up in his truck.
He hopped inside my mouth and he said, “It’s stuck!”
He pulled it to the left (ow!)
He pulled it to the right (ow!)
I accidentally swallowed and he disappeared from sight.

Chorus

(Repeat last line of chorus.) (Ow!)

Then it was out for our first P.E. lesson of the year. We are learning small ball skills. This afternoon we just practiced rolling it to a partner from ever increasing distances, and throwing and catching by ourselves.


And that was about it.

CU in the morning,

Mr Grant
