Muscular System
Introduction
Animals can’t speak, but can communicate with each other. Bees can fly making circles when they find some flowers. Whales sing in order to communicate. Monkeys can produce some meaningful noises to express their mood. But we, humans, can speak to communicate.
We are animals, too. Animals can’t speak, but humans can. We are vertebrate and we can move. We have two legs and two hands. We can walk, run, dance, swim... But we can’t fly, since we don’t have wings.
We’ve got lungs. We don’t have gills. So we can’t breathe under water.
Our body covering consists in skin with hair. We not only eat vegetables as herbivores do, but meat as well. We are omnivore.
Babies are born from mother’s womb. Mummy feeds her baby with milk. So we are mammals.

What's for dinner? The first Thanksgiving
Lyrics - Come Ye Thankful People Come
Chorus as sung in solo above
Come, ye thankful people, come,
raise the song of harvest home;
all is safely gathered in,
ere the winter storms begin.
God our Maker doth provide
for our wants to be supplied;
come to God's own temple, come,
raise the song of harvest home.
Text: Henry Alford, 1810-1871
Music: George J. Elvey, 1816-1893
Sung to: "Twinkle Twinkle "
Little Pilgrim dressed in gray
on that first Thanksgiving Day.
Little Indian dressed in brown,
Came to visit Plymouth Town,
They both came to eat and pray
on that first Thanksgiving Day.
Sing to tune - Where is Thumbkin?
We eat turkey we eat turkey
Yum, yum, yum
Yum, yum, yum
Always on Thanksgiving
Always on Thanksgiving
Yum, yum, yum
Yum, yum, yum
