Pull the strings up about eight inches and tie a large knot in the end of the string. pull the strings back so the knot is up against the bottom of the cup.

The students walk apart until the string is taut, but not touching anything, with care not to pull the string through the hole in the cup. one cup serves and the earpiece and the other as the mouthpiece.

The voices will carry through the string as long as the string is taut.

Good morning, good morning, I'm fine, thank you, and you?

Yes, I am just fine too.

Betty and Bill's Boarding House Blues &

Roy Howard

Betty Botter bought some butter But, she said, this butter's bitter If I put it in my batter It will make my batter bitter.

So she bought a bit of butter Better than the bitter butter And it made her batter better.

Thus, 'twas better Betty Botter Bought a bit of better butter.

Bill had a billboard Bill had a board bill Bill's board bill bored Bill; so, bill sold his billboard to pay his board bill Now Billy's board bill no longer bores Bill.

There is a boarding house far, far away.

Where they serve ham and eggs three times a day.

Oh, how the boarders yell when they hear the dinner bell.

Oh, how the eggs do smell three miles away.

PAGE 10

Literature Ideas Betty and Bill's Boarding House Blues.

Deep in the high mountains and tall trees, somewhere long ago and far away, there was a house of many rooms. The owner began to rent rooms to individuals, who also paid extra for board, which means food. A cook named Betty was hired, and the boarders, who paid for room and board, got what they paid for.

Betty, the cook, did not have much imagination. She only knew how to prepare one meal: ham and eggs.

For breakfast she served ham and eggs, for lunch she served ham and eggs, for dinner she served ham and eggs. The boarders knew that the dinner bell was about to sound, because the odor of the eggs was so strong, people could smell them three miles away!

Bill, one of the boarders, was depressed. He was in the advertising business, and they lived so far away and long ago, that no one had anything to advertise. With no advertising sold, it was very hard for him to pay his bill for room and board. Then it ocurred to him that if he sold his bill board, he would have the money to pay his room and board bill.

Will the boarders survive meal time? Will Betty ever bake better biscuits? Will Bill ever pay his board bill?

Listen to this song. Try to repeat.

Stone Soup

.

NY: Aladdin Books, Macmillan Publishing, 1986.

This is an old French tale that you may be able to find in many sources or retell you own way. Here is the plot:

Three hungry soldiers pass through a village. The people are concerned that the soldiers would take food that they needed; so as they approached, the people hid the food. The soldiers went from door to door asking for food, but no one had any for them. Finally, they asked for a pot and water and three stones, to make "stone soup". As the curious people gather around to see the miracle, they get ideas of wonderful ingredients that could be added. The final result is full of spices, vegetables and meat brought by the people from hiding. All are amazed at how such a wonderful feast could be made from stones. For such wize and splendid men, a great party was made with food for the whole village.

After sleeping as honored guests in the best homes in the village, they depart as heroes. "Such men do not grow on every bush".

Activity: retell or act out the story make stone soup make butter from cream (it changes) make popcorn (it changes into something else) Talk about nutrition and food groups.
