Tune: (Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star)
Language arts, what is it?
It's all about how we communicate.
It helps us read and write,
So we can learn and share our ideas.
Nouns and verbs, adjectives too,
They're the building blocks of language.
We use them to tell stories,
And to share information and knowledge.
We read and write every day,
And it's important to remember,
That language arts can help us,
To explore our world and make a difference.
Tune: (We Will Rock You)
Reading is power, it takes you on a ride.
We will read, will read.
We will read you, all night.
We will read, will read.
Reading is power, it's our right!
Reading is power, it takes you on a ride.
We will read, will read.
It will take you on a flight.
We will read, will read.
And show you the light.
Reading is power, it's our right!
Tune: (Pop Goes The Weasel)
All about language arts,
Let me share my part.
Reading, writing, speaking, too,
Language arts is what we do!
We learn to read and comprehend,
And write with a pen.
We explore our thoughts and ideas,
And share them with our peers.
We study grammar and spelling,
And punctuation, too.
We learn to use language effectively,
And to communicate with you.
Language arts is a powerful tool,
That helps us to succeed.
So let's all learn and grow together,
And celebrate our love for reading!
Tune: (Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes)
Nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives,
Adverbs, conjunctions, and interjections.
These are the parts of speech,
They'll help you write with ease.
Nouns name people, places, and things,
Pronouns take the place of nouns.
Verbs show action or a state of being,
Adjectives describe nouns.
Adverbs tell how, when, or where,
Conjunctions join words or phrases.
Interjections express strong emotion,
And punctuate with an exclamation.
Tune: (I've Been Working on the Railroad)
In ancient times, people used to draw,
Images to tell their stories.
Then came the written word,
And people could communicate across great distances.
The written word has helped us to learn,
And to pass down our knowledge to future generations.
It has inspired us, and entertained us,
And has helped us to make sense of the world around us.
So let's all celebrate the written word,
And use it to create our own stories.
Let's write poems and songs,
And stories that will inspire and entertain others.
These songs can be used to reinforce various concepts and skills related to language arts in the 4th grade, such as parts of speech, grammar, reading comprehension, and writing. They can be used as warm-ups, brain breaks, or review activities within a language arts lesson plan.
