Three Sharp-Toothed Buzzards by Unknown The song "Three Sharp-Toothed Buzzards" has motions that go along with the lyrics which reinforce counting. This song gives children the opportunity to practice counting both forward and backward because the buzzards fly away and then return. The lyrics are: Three sharp-toothed buzzards Sitting in a dead tree. Oh look! One has flown away! What a shame! If you have three children, you can match motions to the lyrics by having them hold up three fingers, put their fingers below their mouths like teeth, and then make the shape of a dead tree with their bodies. One pretends to fly away each time. When there are no sharp-tooth buzzards left, sing: "No sharp-toothed buzzards Sitting in a dead tree. Oh look! One has returned! Let us rejoice!" Children who pretended to fly away can now fly back, one by one. The song ends when all three sharp-toothed buzzards have returned. |
