Animal Song, Animals Song, The Animal Song, Mammal Song, Bird Song, Fish Song, Reptile Song, Insect Song, Amphibian Song
This song is a great beginning science song for children. Classifying animals – or just plain classifying anything – is a great study skill. It helps us compare and contrast and make connections between things. This is way more fun with animals than other stuff, but when they come around to classifying shapes and whatnot, you’ve built a foundation already.

It seems easy, but it’s sometimes hard to separate the subject from the predicate, especially when they start throwing in clauses or shifting sentence order. As long as students can at least find who or what is doing the action and then determine what the action is, they’ve got most of the battle won. Thankfully, this song reminds them of that point in a catchy tune.

Nouns are not quite as fun to use as adjectives, but it’s important to know the place and function of every part of speech in english. They’re certainly cooler than pronouns, too. Those guys are just dull, even if they do save us time. None are as fun as interjections, though, are they?
