C is for Cookie

One thing I do with most of my classes is sing songs. Older kids always do pop songs. But the younger ones (5, 6 and 7 year olds) also do children’s songs. A favorite of my ShaSha students (the students who are in the Korean Kindergarten side of the school – they have one to two classes a day of English instruction) is “C is for Cookie”.

I laugh everytime they request the song. “COOKIE SONG CHU-SAY-O!!!!” I’m trying to teach them to say “Cookie Song Please!”. I’m not having a whole lot of success with that.

Anyhow, my new camera is able to shoot video with sound (in contrast to my old one that didn’t have microphone). I decided it would be fun to record my 5 year old ShaSha class. I have two ShaSha classes, one 5 year old and one 6 year old (remember Korean ages are roughly a year older than western ages, so the kids are actually between 3.5 and 4 years old). My 5 year old class is much better than my 6 year old class. Part of the reason for this may be the class size. The 5 year old class is half the size of the 6 year old class.

“Cookie” starts with “C”!
Let’s think of other things that starts with “C”!
Uh. . .Uh. . . Who cares about da other things?!

“C” is for Cookie that’s good enough for me,
“C” is for cookie that’s good enough for me,

Oh! cookie, cookie, cookie starts with “C”!

Hey, You know what? A round cookie with one bite out of it looks like a “C”.
A round donut with one bite out of it also looks like a “C” but it is not as good as a cookie.
Oh, and the moon sometimes looks like a “C” but you can’t eat that.
So…
