Apple Pie Chant
Oh my! Apple pie!
Fill my plate up to the sky.
Roll the crust. Peel and slice
Wish that I could eat it twice!

Oh! - Place one hand on knee
My! - Place other hand on other knee
Apple pie! - draw a horizontal circular pie in the air with two hands
Fill- turn one hand palm up and clap other hand on it face down
my plate up to the sky - raise the upper hand slowly toward the ceiling
Roll- pretend to hold a rolling pin and roll out towards the right
the - roll back to the body
crust - roll out to the left and back to the body

Wish that - place one hand on a knee
I could - place other hand on other knee
