My students are quite funny!

Today in music class (Pre-1st), I asked the students how we could keep a steady beat as we sang to them (greeting / closing song). We do this everyday, so they are starting to come up with new ideas. One of the little boys showed me a motion I had never seen before. So I asked him what to call it. He declared "Shave." So we wiped our fingers across our upper lip to the beat and sang, "Shave for Fulop. . ." I was laughing inside. At the end of class the same little boy came up with this lion roaring motion, with a scowl on the face. He declared, "We can call it grump." So we sang "Grump for Fulop. . ." I had never heard these in all my years of teaching 5 year olds. These little ones truly brighten my day!
