We are working on a Thank You card for Alex's Grandpa Jeff who visited our classroom recently and played some songs on his guitar. A couple of his songs were "Wagon Wheel," "Oh Susanna," and "I'll Be Working' On The Railroad", which, as he explained, are folk songs. We thought it might be nice to draw the story that each song tells as a way to say thank you. Below, Grace draws a banjo for "Oh Susanna" (...with a banjo on my knee). Prater (upper right) drew a train on the tracks. Willa (bottom right) drew a wagon wheel. Willa said, "They put things inside the wheel. They open and close them (pointing to the dots inside the wheel). This is gonna be the rain." As she listened to the lyrics of the song, she heard the word "mama" a few times. "My mama has long hair," said Willa, and she added her mama to the picture.
