Three Blue Pigeons

This simple song is great for:

Adding and substracting!
Teaching the rhythmic element 'ka-tim'. (The only other rhythms in the song are 'ta', 'sa' and 'ti-ti'.)
Teaching the Major Scale.
Alternating between singing and speaking voices. (Also useful for students who haven't 'found' their singing voice yet!)
