Primary 1 – Nativity lyrics

Song 1: Woolly Sheep

 

  1. One woolly sheep won’t stand still,

Running around on the hill

Keeping all the shepherds busy,

Working till they feel quite dizzy

Work, work, work,

Work, work, work.

 

  1. Two woolly sheep…

 

  1. Three woolly sheep…

 

  1. Four woolly sheep…

 

  1. Five woolly sheep…

 

Work, work, work,

Work, work, work.

Phew!

 

 

Song 2: Sleepy Shepherd

 

  1. Somebody is snoring, somebody’s asleep,

Somebody should be looking after his sheep,

But he’s a sleepy, sleepy head,

What a sleepy shepherd he is.

 

  1. Somebody is snoring, somebody is snug,

Somebody is curled up like a bug in a rug,

And he’s a sleepy, sleepy head,

What a sleepy shepherd he is.

 

  1. Instrumental

 

  1. Somebody is snoring, somebody’s asleep,

Somebody should be looking after his sheep,

But he’s a sleepy, sleepy head,

What a sleepy shepherd he is.

What a sleepy shepherd he is.

 

 

 

Song 3: One Starry Night

 

  1. A beautiful angel came to the hill,

Came to the hill, came to the hill,

A beautiful angel came to the hill,

One starry night.

 

  1. He hovered above with silver wings,

Silver wings, silver wings,

He hovered above with silver wings,

One starry night.

 

  1. And over his head a halo bright,

Halo bright, halo bright,

And over his head a halo bright,

One starry night.

 

  1. He told us about a tiny child,

Tiny child, tiny child,

He told us about a tiny child,

One starry night.

Song 4: Would you like to come along?

 

Strolling down to Bethlehem, skipping through the night,

I’m going to find a stable with a tiny babe inside.

Would you like to come along with me?

Would you like to come along?

Would you like to come along with me?

Would you like to come along?

 

Strolling down to Bethlehem, skipping through the night,

I’m going to find a stable with a tiny babe inside.

Would you like to come along with me?

Would you like to come along?

Would you like to come along with me?

Would you like to come along?

 

Would you like to come along with me?

Would you like to come along?

Would you like to come along with me?

Would you like to come along?

 

 

 

Song 5:  Under a star

 

  1. Under a star, deep in the night was a stable,

Under a star, deep in the night was a stable,

Under a star, deep in the night, Jesus was born,

Jesus was born for you and me.

 

  1. There in a place so far away, we found him,

There in a place so far away, we found him,

There in a place so far away, Jesus was born,

Jesus was born for you and me.

 

  1. Under a star, deep in the night was a stable,

Under a star, deep in the night was a stable,

Under a star, deep in the night, Jesus was born,

Jesus was born for you and me.

 

 

 

Song 6:  Bumpy Road

 

  1. Three kings were riding down a bumpy road,

Following a star showing the way to go,

It was a bumpy road, bumpy road,

It was a bumpy, bumpy road,

 

  1. Three kings were riding, wearing royal crowns,

Sitting on their camels, heading for the town,

It was a bumpy road, bumpy road,

It was a bumpy, bumpy road,

 

  1. Instrumental

 

  1. Three kings were riding down a bumpy road,

Following a star showing the way to go,

It was a bumpy road, bumpy road,

It was a bumpy, bumpy road,

 

 

Song 7:  Wake up! Wake up!

 

  1. Wake up! (clap, clap) Wake up! (clap, clap)

Come and see the King!

Wake up! (clap, clap) Wake up! (clap, clap)

Come and see the King!

Rub your eyes, jump out of bed,

Don’t you be a sleepy head!

Come and see the new born King.

 

  1. Wake up! (clap, clap) Wake up! (clap, clap)

Come to Bethlehem!

Wake up! (clap, clap) Wake up! (clap, clap)

Come to Bethlehem!

Up you get, don’t make a fuss,

Wipe away your sleepy dust,

Come and see the new born King.

 

  1. Wake up! (clap, clap) Wake up! (clap, clap)

Come and see the King!

Wake up! (clap, clap) Wake up! (clap, clap)

Come and see the King!

Rub your eyes, jump out of bed,

Don’t you be a sleepy head!

Come and see the new born King.

Come and see the new born King.

We are extremely sorry we forgot to post our blog from last week so here are some of the things we got up to…

We were very lucky and got to try out Judo with a real Judo instructor.  We got to wear the Judo jackets and played lots of different games! Here are some pictures…

In writing this week we have been learning how to write instructions, we will be doing this for the next couple of weeks and will even write instructions how to make our Christmas Fayre product!

In maths we have been continuing with addition and we are all getting better and quicker at adding.  We have spotted patterns and realise that even if we switch numbers we can still add them and get to the same answer!

The triangles and rectangles have been adding using the strategy of partitioning.

 

We really enjoyed the BBB and enjoyed talking about how we feel safe in school.
