Engine Engine

I changed the words a bit to this traditional song/chant. We have been learning about Toronto and looking at different maps of our city. We have been exploring the map of our subway system. We are getting pretty good at figuring out North, South, East and West!

Engine Engine

Engine, engine, number nine,

Waiting on the Danforth line,

Have a ticket, you’ll be fine,

Engine, engine, number nine.

Engine, engine, number nine,

Running on the Danforth line,

Hear the bell when it’s time,

Engine, engine, number nine.

Engine, engine, number nine,

Stopping on the Danforth line,

See it sparkle, see it shine,

Engine, engine, number nine.

This week our focus is on the long i sound -- especially when it needs a magic e!
