 Dragon Dreams
(Tune: The Mulberry Bush)
Cherry Carl Artwork: www.toonclipart.com

I dream of a dragon in my sleep.

She hides in a cave so dark and deep.

She’s got wings like a dragonfly.

Do you suppose she really flies?

She doesn’t ever wear a dress.

Her cave is such a dreadful mess!

Smoke rings drift when days are dreary.

My dragon dreams just make me weary!

 Dog Dreams
(Tune: Old MacDonald without the chorus)
Cherry Carl Artwork: www.toonclipart.com

What do dogs see in their dreams?

Is there drama or dreary schemes?

Do they dream that they can drive?

Do they drag at sixty-five?

Do they dream of dried up kibble,

play the drums or even dribble?

I hope my dog dreams are not drab,

but I’ll never know . . . he just won’t blab!

 dr Shape Book

Directions: Duplicate one drum shape book for each child in the group. Staple
several sheets of white bond behind the drum shape, staple on the side in the
allotted spot. Allow children time to draw pictures of things that begin like
drum. Children may dictate picture labels to the teacher/aide or make
attempts to write their own. The teacher can write the correctly spelled
under the child’s invented spelling. Add the completed book to each child’s
collection of familiar reading.
