How are you friends? My name is Miss Monica. What's your name? Oh, well I'm so
happy you came to circle time today. Oh, did you hear that? Listen, listen, put on
your listening ears. I think I hear our good morning train coming.
Choo-choo, hello friends, and we'll say hello to our friends, all of our friends wearing green.
Choo-choo, hello friends, and we'll say hello to everyone that's come to Circle.
Choo-choo, hello friends.
Hello everyone, welcome to Circle Time. I'm so happy you're here. Oh my friends, we
have so much to do. I need to find my pointer, my Circle Time pointer, so we
can review our Circle Time board. If you have a pointer at home, you can take it
out or you can use your pointer finger so you can help me. Now let's start by
finding out what day it is today. Will you help me sing the days of the week?
Wonderful, remember when we sing days of the week, you can clap your hands, you can
snap your fingers, or you can just sing, whatever you choose. Get ready, get ready,
here we go.
It's Sunday and it's Monday, it's Tuesday and it's Wednesday, it's Thursday and it's Friday, and then it's Saturday.
Today is Tuesday, today is Tuesday, today is Tuesday, all day long.
Yes my friends, today is Tuesday. Let's put it on the board. That's the perfect place.
Will you read that with me? Okay, let's read it together. I will point, here we go.
Today is Tuesday. Ooh, let's read it one more time.
Today is Tuesday, it sure is, it's Tuesday.
Now, let's find out what's the weather, what's the weather, what's the weather out today?
Is it sunny, is it cloudy, is it raining out today?
Oh my friends, what's the weather where you live?
You may have to go peek out your window, then come back and tell me what you see.
I'll give you some time.
Are you back? What did you see?
What's the weather where you live?
Ooh, ooh, really?
Well thank you for sharing what the weather is where you live.
Now, I want to find out what the weather is here, where the Central Time Classroom is.
Will you help me?
Okay my friends, maybe Piggy Pig can help as well.
But first we need to move Piggy Pig to Tuesday.
Let's go Piggy Pig, here we go.
Oh, I think Piggy Pig is ready.
I'm ready, are you ready?
Okay, let's use our imaginations and head over to our imaginary window.
Come on everyone, here we go.
Ooh, now we're at the imaginary window.
Who's here already?
Look at that, hello Piggy Pig.
Hi friends.
Oh, what's the weather today?
Friends, can you help?
Is it a snowy day out today?
