Make A Triangle
(tune: Three Blind Mice)
One, two, three; one, two, three
Do you see? Do you see?
Up the hill and to the top
Down the hill--and then you stop
Straight across; tell me what have you got?
A triangle--a triangle!
Make A Square
(tune: Twinkle, Twinkle)
From the bottom to the top
Straight across and then you stop
Straight down to the bottom again
Across and stop where you began
If the lines are the same size
Then a square is you surprise.

Round and round on the paper I go
What fun to go around like so

Shapes
(Sung to Are You Sleeping?)
This is a square, this is a square
How can you tell? How can you tell?
It has four sides, all the same size
It's a square; it's a square
This is a circle, this is a circle
How can you tell? How can you tell?
It goes round and round, no end can be found
It's a circle; it's a circle
This is a triangle, this is a triangle
How can you tell? How can you tell?
It only has three sides that join to make three points
It's a triangle; it's a triangle
This is a rectangle, this is a rectangle
How can you tell? How can you tell?
It has two short sides, and it has two long sides
It's a rectangle; it's a rectangle
What Shape Is This? - Song - Sung to The Muffin Man

I'm holding in my hand?

I have four corners, four lovely corners
I am a square, that is my name
