This was our final number for the program and it brought the house down. This song is a medley of popular music all about snowmen. (For those in Utah, it is inspired by the song Once There Was A Snowman. For those outside of Utah, you will still like the video)
I'd love to claim credit for the words for this music, but the words were done by a Utah group called "Inside Out". You can find their stuff here.
I promise, you will not regret watching this video. This was the last song and the parents gave the kids a long standing ovation. I have no idea how we will top this next year.
NOTE: THIS IS THE FINAL VIDEO IN A SERIES OF 6 VIDEOS. IF YOU HAVE NOT YET WATCHED THE OTHERS, YOU CAN FIND THEM BELOW.
And now I give you... The Once There Was a Snowman Medley

That is a great video.
well done!
When did they start practicing this stuff? Kindergarten?
Great job!
So cute! They are having so much fun!
Brilliant! You are soooo screwed for next year, there's just NO topping THAT!! Merry Christmas!
My First grader's program looked stale compared to yours. Not to mention there are 8 classes of 30 in our school, so 10 times the size of yours... I bet those kids will love singing forever because they had so much fun dancing and singing such fun songs!
The joy you bring to these kids,...You have taught them the pleasure of working together, appreciation of music and an outgoing attitude. Awesome!
Abe, my ultimate, ultimate friend…you bring to this world a measure of happiness which cannot be topped. I LOVED this program…I also have this particular CD and you made me want to dig it out and give it another listen.
EXCELLENT job, sir!
I might even have to steal this idea for my class next year...
Awesome!! You are the best!!
Merry Christmas!!
Awesome job Abe! Can't wait till next year's performance!
Bravo!
I am planning on teaching this to the primary kids for next year's church program. Think I'll get released?
This is my niece's favorite christmas song. They sing it all year long!!! You're awesome Abe!
When we first got this cd I think my kids and I listened to this song about a million times--talk about inside out and out of the box. Love all of your videos--sorry I haven't had a chance to comment on each one--you have done a great job with your kids--someone should get you one of those plaques that says "To teach is to touch a life forever"..........{{{just sayin}}
And that concludes our cheesy program.
You make teaching first grade fun.
Almost.
Very Merry!
I bet your First grade Team loves you. They probably just leave it up to you.
I would if you were on my team.
Hands down, best Christmas program ever! I actually have that CD with that medley on it. My kids love it!
I'm impressed that every one of those kids is really getting into it! How can you not be their favorite teacher! Excellent maestro, excellent!
Those kids are talented. At first I was distracted by the bald dude if front of you.
No other 1st grade program can compare to this!! lol Fantastic job!!
I LOVE that version, it's so much fun. I remember the first time I heard/saw it I was completely dying.
I'm MOST impressed with how much alll the kids are doing the choreography and getting into it and having so much fun. Having taught music in an elementary school, I know how hard it is to get them all to remember everything and actually DO it! Clearly you're awesome.
Super cute. thanks for sharing.
Original! NICE! Hey, have you heard about Mumford & Sons. You may not like it, but man I'm addicted. The Cave and Little Lion Man are awesome. (beware Little Lion Man contains the f word in the chorus)
I cannot believe you got all those first graders to do ALL those songs! The kids must love it and the parents too! What do the other grades do? Did you have your own show???? (Just asking 'cause I ran our Winter Program for the first time this year at my school and I'd love to shake things up a little next year!)
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year, Cheese !
Thanks for sharing, as ususal you're a brilliant teacher. Your students are lucky.
Merry Christmas to you and your lovely family.
Those parents must be so proud! My kid just sat there looking like he might crap his pants.
Fabulous, Cheese!
Merry Christmas, my friend. May you and your family have a blessed, joyous holiday.
It is so nice to visit your blog of cheese after much respite and lack of writing drive. Your musical at school was a hit, I am sure! Merry Christmas and Very happy new year to you!
hugs, Unicyclerose
I love that you are single handedly contributing to the hipness and coolness of so many of our youth!!!
This videos are amazing! I wish my kids could have been involved with something like this.
Just an outstanding job at school my friend...
Awesome job on these videos!! (double exclamation, must be reeeeealy good) I just got around to watching them because I'm an asshole and do most of my blogging at work. Anyways, love them!
Ahhhh....such cute chicklets.
You REALLY know how to do Christmas up right. And I realllllly want to transfer Olivia to your school so you can teach her next year...
