1. Greeting Song (Good Morning) – The Learning Station

Lyrics:

There is something fun we can do when we meet.
Some are silly, some are proper ways to greet.
Stand up tall, find a friend, and stick out your right hand.
Firmly shake and look them in the eye…
Turn your head from side to side,
Give a silly, almost proper sideways, HI!

Good morning! Buenos Dias! What’s up? It’s a great day.
I’m thankful to be with you.
Good morning! Buenos Dias! What’s up?
I’m happy to (feel this way).- 3x
There is something fun we can do when we meet.
Some are silly, some are proper ways to greet.
Close your hand with your knuckles facing at a friend.
Now you both tap knuckles as you smile….
Turn your head from side to side,
Give a silly, almost proper sideways, HI!

Good morning! Buenos Dias! What’s up? It’s a great day.
I’m thankful to be with you.
Good morning! Buenos Dias! What’s up?
I’m happy to (feel this way).- 3x
There is something fun we can do when we meet.
Some are silly, some are proper ways to greet.
Right hand, to a friend’s right hand, then lock your thumbs.
Flutter up and do the butterfly…
Turn your head from side to side,
Give a silly, almost proper sideways, HI!

Good morning! Buenos Dias! What’s up? It’s a great day.
I’m thankful to be with you.
Good morning! Buenos Dias! What’s up?
I’m happy to (feel this way).- 3x
