Carnival of the Animals

Grade 2 and 3 are listening to and working with Camille Saint-Saens Carnival of the Animals. Plenty of age-appropriate, witty and very enjoyable music! Don’t hesitate to play this music at home if you can get hold of a good recording.

Space! Grade 2 and 3

Here are the words for Calling Home (Major Tom) by Peter Schilling

Standing there alone, the ship is waiting
All systems are go, are you sure?
Control is not convinced
But the computer has the evidence
No need to abort

The countdown starts

Watching in a trance, the crew is certain
Nothing left to chance, all is working
Trying to relax, up in the capsule
“Send me up a drink”, jokes Major Tom
The count goes on

4, 3, 2, 1
Earth below us, drifting falling
Floating weightless, calling home
