Song: “Make a Circle, Draw a Square” (Tune: “Oh My Darling Clementine”)
Make a circle, make a circle, draw it in the sky.
Use your finger, use your finger, make it round as pie.
Make a square, make a square, make the lines so straight.
Draw a square, draw a square, draw one or draw eight.
Draw a triangle, draw a triangle, always start at the top.
Make a tent, make a tent, use three lines and then stop!
Flannel: “One Whole Pie”
One whole pie
Set by the door,
Cut into pieces,
I count four.
Four pieces of pie,
All for me,
I ate one piece, (make loud eating sounds as you take the piece of the board)
Now there are three.
Three pieces of pie
For me, too.
I ate another piece,
Now there are two.
Two pieces of pie,
Oh! What fun!
I ate another piece,
Now there is one.
One piece of pie,
I can’t wait!
I ate that last piece,
Empty plate!
Song: “This Is the Way We Make a Pie”
This is the way we slice the pumpkin, slice the pumpkin, slice the pumpkin,
This is the way we slice the pumpkin to make a yummy pie.
Additional verses:
Pour the flour
Roll the dough
Stir the filling
Sprinkle spices
Bake our pie
Eat a slice

Rhyme: “Alligator Pie”
Alligator, alligator, alligator pie.
If I don’t get some,
I think I’m gonna cry.
Take away my basketball,
Take away the sky,
But don’t take away
My alligator pie.
Repeat for other pies in high and low voices
