Two Things

[Rick Lupert <RickPoet...>]

Thing Number 1
--------------
Earlier today I was introducing the concept of Havdallah to some first
graders...I asked the question "Who knows what happens at the end of
Shabbat?" One girl (I need not mention she was a 'little' girl) raises her
hand...I call on her and she answers: "Black History Month?"  As you can
imagine...laughter ensued.


Thing Number 2
--------------
Does anyone know of any Joseph related songs which would be appropriate for
young kids...I'm looking for something up beat that these very same first
graders (see thing # 1) would be able to memorize with only a few
rehearsals.  I think there's too many words in the narrative portions of
the Webber/Rice musical to make any of those songs work for this age, and I
don't really like the idea of using a portion of one of those songs...so,
can anyone help?

Much obliged,
