Down by the Glen

As often happens, when someone mentions one song by a particular artist, I go to check out that song and end up listening to a whole bunch more.  Gwyneth brought up "All My Colors" from Ralph's World as a great color-themed song the other day, and I've been on a Ralph's World binge ever since.

I was thrilled to come across the following Ralph's World video clip at youTube.  We use A LOT of dancing and gestures in our classes, often incorporating bits and pieces from American Sign Language.   I frequently visit the ASL Browser site for new sign/gesture ideas.  It's an online dictionary of American Sign Language signs with video clips.  I visit so often the woman who does the signing in the videos feels like an old friend.   It's a tremendous resource for any early childhood educator.  Somebody very cleverly edited together many of her video clips to make a great little video for a great little song Down by the Glen. 

Don't be suprised to see me "borrow" the idea for this video;-)
