THEME: FAMILIES

FAMILIES

My family is big as big can be –

There's mum and dad and sister, Lee.

There's my brother Joe and his new wife, Bea.

There's grandma and grandpa

And, of course, there's me!

My other grandparents live far away

So we don't see them everyday.

My friend's family is very small,

Just Johnny, his dad and brother Paul!

But no matter who and no matter where

A family means sharing, love and care!

THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN MY HOUSE

1. These are the people who live in my house ....

Live in my house, live in my house;

These are the people who live in my house;

Live in my house.

2. My mother (name) lives in my house ....

3. My father (name) lives in my house

4. My grandmother (name) lives in my house ....

5. My brother (name) lives in my house ....

6. My uncle (name) lives in my house ....

(Tune: Here We Go Round The Mulberry Bush)
