Hey, did you know The Mailbox has a book called Calendar Time for Little Learners? Since today’s the first day of September, I thought I’d share a little ditty from the book with you. Here we go—sing along to the chorus of “Jingle Bells.”
September, September,
September’s here, hooray!
I’m at school
To make new friends
And to listen, learn, and play! Hey!
How fun was that? Okay, we have time for one more. La, la, la, la! This time the tune is “Three Blind Mice.”
September! September!
School has begun. We’re having fun!
Let’s look for today on the calendar.
Find the day and the date on the calendar.
Who is ready to come to the calendar?
Please raise your hand.
Yep! That’s also from the coolest calendar time book on the planet. 🙂 Check it out! And if you have a favorite September song or activity you’d like to share, the stage is all yours.
Happy September to all!

September Poem
Titled: School Is Cool
School is cool
We’re glad we’re here!
It’s time to start
A cool school year.
We’ll follow rules
And have some fun.
Welcome, welcome
E-v-e-r-y-o-n-e!
I love adding in catchy little songs for my class all throughout the day…they love it and it grabs their attention, too. Also, it really helps them to remember. Here is one I made up today…the tune is Jingle Bells:
September, September
It’s a brand-new month today!
Clap your hands, stomp your feet
and help me say HURRAY!
HURRAY!
Here’s one I use with my K clas(tune:alphabet song)
When we do the calendar
We learn the month, the date, the year.
Every week day has a name
There’s lots of numbers that look the same
So let’s begin to show you how
We do the calendar
Do it right now.
I can’t recall where I got the song, but it probably came from a Mailbox magazine. This is my favorite magazine for getting ideas and activities for my class.
