Three Little Witches |
|
THREE LITTLE WITCHES (Tune: "Ten Little Indians") One little, two little, three little witches, (Hold
up 3 fingers.) |
THE WITCH'S ITCH
The witch, the witch, the witch has an itch.
Where, oh, where does the witch have an itch?
The witch has an itch on her itty bitty name body part. (Point
to body part.)
On her itty bitty body part?
The witch has an itch on her itty bitty body part.
Continue saying and pointing to different body parts.
JACK-O-LANTERN (Tune: "Lassie and Laddie")
Oh, once I had a pumpkin, a pumpkin, a pumpkin.
Oh, once I had a pumpkin with no face at all.
With no eyes and no nose and no mouth and no teeth.
Oh, once I had a pumpkin with no face at all.
So I made a Jack-o-Lantern, Jack-o-Lantern, Jack-o-Lantern.
So I made a Jack-o-Lantern with a big, funny face.
With big eyes and a big nose and a big mouth and big teeth.
So I made a Jack-o-Lantern with a big, funny face.
Hint: Draw a pumpkin on the board as you sing the first
verse. Add the eyes, nose and mouth as you sing the second verse.
PUMPKIN MAN (This is an interactive tell and draw story. You
will need a large sheet of paper and a marker, or you can cut
the pieces out of felt and place them on the flannel board.)
Demonstrate these movements for the children to make at appropriate places in the story:
"Knock" -pretend to knock on a door
"Rock" -move body back and forth
"Spin" -twirl hands around each other
"Come In" -make motion with hand
Once there was a little old lady who would just sit all day and
rock and spin and wait for somebody to come in.
One day as she rocked and spun she heard a knock at the door.
"Come in," she called. In came two big, black boots. (Draw boots
on the board.) "I canšt talk to you big, black boots," said the
little old lady. So she just sat there and rocked and spun until
she heard a knock at the door. "Come in," she called. And in came
two bony legs. (Draw two skinny legs coming out of the boots.
"I canšt talk to two bony legs," said the little old lady
The story continues as a funny body (draw a pear shaped body),
two long arms (draw wiggly arms), and two big hands (draw hands
at the end of arms) come to the door.
Finally, a pumpkin head comes in (draw a pumpkin head on the body). The story ends as the little old lady says, "I can talk to the Pumpkin Man."
End by singing "Do You Know the Pumpkin Man?" to the tune of "Do You Know the Muffin Man?"
