[HANASHIR:6745] K-6 sunday school music

[Yaffa14 <Yaffa14...>]

Allrighty,...
it is my third year teaching music at sunday school...I have taught the k-3 
the basic songs about colors, family, sing along song, etc...and as they have 
grown they continue to sing and enjoy them...I've added in many songs that 
I've learned at GUCI and through NFTY... but I need some new stuff... catchy 
and easy to sing...
these children are getting bored, i feel, and i'm at a loss at what to do...
additionally, i have 4-6 graders in an 8 week rotation... my mother, director 
of education, (convenient and also a difficulty at times) wants me to work 
with them on a cantada of sorts or something a little more difficult than 
hiney mah tov... however, these children hate being in music class... they 
absolutely hate it... I've done sing downs, israeli dancing... yet they come 
in each week and detest it....
any ideas on what to do??  

Many thanks, 
one love, 
Jennifer Gubitz
