Construction Songs, Poems, & Fingerplays

 

Can You Hammer A Nail?

(Sung to the tune of: "Do Your Ears Hang Low?")

Can you hammer a nail?
Can you saw a piece of wood?
Are you handy with a wrench?
Can you use it like you should?
The construction worker can
Use these tools in different ways
Each and every day.

  

In Tune With Tools

(Sung to the tune of: "Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes")

Help the children make up a motion that corresponds to each tool.   
Have the children perform each tools motion as they sing its name. 
Sing the song slowly as everyone gets the hang of it, then increase the tempo. 

Saw, hammer, tape measure, tape measure.
Saw, hammer, tape measure, tape measure.
Pliers, paintbrush, and screwdriver.
Saw, hammer, tape measure, tape measure.

  

Construction Vehicles

The backhoe digs a big, big hole.
The dump truck hauls the dirt.
The grader scrapes the ground so smooth.
While all the workers work.

  

Johnny's Hammers

Verse One: (Make hammering motion with one fists)

Johnny had one hammer, one hammer, one hammer
Johnny had one hammer then he had Two

Verse Two: (Make hammering motion with both fists)

Johnny had two hammers, two hammers, two hammers,
Johnny had two hammers then he had Three.

Verse Three: (Make motion with both fists and one leg.)

Johnny had three hammers, three hammers, three hammers,
Johnny had three hammers then he had Four

Verse Four: (Make motion with both fists and both legs)

Johnny had four hammers, four hammers, four hammers,
Johnny had four hammers then he had Five

Verse Five: (Make motion with both fists and both legs and head. )

Johnny had five hammers, five hammers, five hammers
Johnny had five hammers, then he went to sleep (lay hands like sleeping

 

Construction Worker Song

This is the way we pound our nails,
pound our nails, pound our nails,
This is the way we pound our nails, so early in the morning.
This is the way we saw our wood,
Saw our wood, saw our wood.
This is the way we saw our wood, so early in the morning.
This is the way we use a screwdriver,
use a screwdriver, use a screwdriver,
This is the way we use a screwdriver, so early in the morning.
This is the way we drill a hole,
drill a hole, drill a hole,
This is the way we drill a hole, so early in the morning.

Additional  Verses:
Saw The Wood
Turn the Screw
Stack the Bricks
Paint the walls
Stir the paint

 

Hammers, Pliers, Saws, and Screws

(Sung to the tune of: "Pop Goes the Weasel")

Hammers, Pliers, Saws, and Screws
Nails and bolts and ladders
Who uses all these different tools?
The construction worker!

 

Cement Mixer Chant

Do the actions indicated in the first two lines.
 On the last two lines roll one hand over the other.

Cement mixer comes
(pretend to drive truck)

Cement mixer comes
With a rumble, rumble, rumble rub
Rumble, rumble, rub

Shovel in the sand
(pretend to shovel)
Shovel in the sand
With a rumble, rumble rumble, rub
Rumber, rumber, rumber, rub

Add the cement
(pretend to carry heavy bags)
Add the cement
With a rumble, rumble, rumble, rub
Rumble, rumble, rub

Mix water in
(stir)
Mix water in
With a rumble, rumble, rumble, rub
Rumble, rumble, rub

Keep the mixer turning
(roll hands one over the other faster)
Keep the mixer turning
Keep the mixer turning
Or the concrete will get hard
(Freeze in place)

 

Dump Truck Song

(Sung to the tune of "One little, two little, etc)

Bumpity - bumpity comes the dump truck
Bumpity - bumpity comes the dump truck
Bumpity - bumpity comes the dump truck
Duuuuuuuuuuump out the load

I've got oranges in my dump truck
I've got oranges in my dump truck
I've got oranges in my dump truck
Duuuuuuuuuuump out the load

I've got boxes in my dump truck
I've got boxes in my dump truck
I've got boxes in my dump truck
Duuuuuuuuuuump out the load

I've got garbage in my dump truck
I've got garbage in my dump truck
I've got garbage in my dump truck
Duuuuuuuuuuump out the load

 

See the Dump Truck

(Sung to the tune of: "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star")

See the dump truck going slow,
It must have a great big load,
Full of dirt or maybe rocks,
Working hard, it never stops.
See the dump truck going slow,
It must have a great big load,

  

Did You Ever See A Worker?

Did you ever see a builder, a builder , a builder
Did you ever see a builder saw this way and that?
Saw this way and that way, saw this way and that way
Did you ever see a builder saw this way and that
Did you ever see a painter A painter A painter
Did you ever see a painter brush this way and that
Brush this way and that way brush this way and that way
Did you ever see a painter brush this way and that

 

My Little House

(Sung to the tune of: "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star")

I'm going to build a little house
With windows wide and bright.
With chimney tall and curling smoke
Rising out of sight.
In winter when the snowflakes fall
Or when I hear a storm,
I'll go and sit inside my house
Where I'll be snug and warm.

 

Three Little Pigs

(Sung to the tune of: "Three Blind Mice")

Three little pigs,
three little pigs,
Each built a house,
each built a house.
The wolf came by and he huffed and puffed.
The straw and stick houses were not so tough.
Thank goodness, the brick house was strong enough
For three little pigs!

 

Who Built a House?"

(Sung to the tune of: "Mary Had A  Little Lamb")

Who built a house
That was made of straw,
Made of straw, made of straw?
Who built a house
That was made of straw?
The first Little Pig, That's who.

Who built a house
That was made of sticks,
Made of sticks, made of sticks?
Who built a house
That was made of sticks?
The second Little Pig, That's who.

Who built a house
That was made of bricks,
Made of bricks, made of bricks?
Who built a house
That was made of bricks?
The third Little Pig, That's who.

 

Scoop And Dump

(Sung to the tune of: "Skip to My Lou")

Scoop! goes ditch digger in the dirt
(bend low, raise arms up high)
Scoop goes ditch digger in the dirt
Scoop goes ditch digger in the dirt
Scoop up all the dirt

Reach up so high with the crane
(Cup hand, hold up high)
Reach up so high with the crane
Reach up so high with the crane
Hold the dirt up high

Dump the dirt into the truck
(reach high, drop hand to knees)
Dump the dirt into the truck
Dump the dirt into the truck
Haul it all away

 

Shovel And Dump Truck

(Note: This fingerplay is especially designed to help correct speech  defects.
The combinations, cr, mp, rt, sc, sh, sl, st, sw, th, tr, wa and wo are given)

Scoop, scoop, scoop
The big shovel digs the dirt.
(Make a scooping motion with right hand, palm down; make fist)

Then it swings around
And empties the dirt and stones
Into a red dump truck
(Swing right arm from extreme right towards left. Hold right
 fist above open left hand. Open fist to "empty the shovel.")

Crash! bang! Thud!
The dirt falls into the truck.
(repeat scooping, swinging & dumping.)

Now the dump truck is full
Away it goes down the road.
(Move left hand, palm up, away from yourself.)

Good-bye truck.
Come back for another load.

 

The Steam Shovel

Since children today see steam shovels in action at construction sites, this finger play
 will add to their concepts of the steam shovel. This example  fits into the category of occupations.
 If possible, visit a construction project and have the children watch a steam shovel in action.

Here is the steam shovel, (Right forearm erect, hand drooping).

And here is the ground. (Two arms enclose area).

See the great boom (Right elbow stationary, forearm moving side to side).

Swing round and round.

It dips, it bites, (Forearm dips, thumb and fingers in grasping motion).

It lifts, it throws. (Forearm lifts, thumb and fingers spin).

My, how the hole

In the ground grows! (Two hands enclose circle).

Dipping, scooping,

Lifting, throwing.

See how the hill (Forearms with hands meeting).

Beside it is growing.

 

Build Me A House (Old House)

Old house, tear it down.    
Who's going to help me tear it down?   
Bring me a hammer, tear it down.   
Bring me a saw, tear it down.   
The next thing you bring me, tear it down.   
Is a wrecking machine, tear it down.   
New house, build it up.   
Who's gonna help me build it up?   
Bring me a hammer, build it up.   
Bring me a saw, build it up.   
The next thing you bring me, build it up.   
Is a carpenter man, build it up.   
The next thing you bring me, build it up.   
Is a carpenter man, build it up.  

 

Carpenter

This is the way he saws the wood
(making saw motion)
Sawing, sawing, sawing.
     
This is the way he nails the nail
(making hammering motion)
Nailing, nailing, nailing.
     
This is the way he paints the house
(making a brushing motion)
Painting, painting, painting.

 

Hammer And Saw

'Pound, pound, pound'
Says the little hammer.
Pound the nails in tight.
'Saw, saw, saw'
Says the little saw.
Saw, saw, saw,
Saw the board just right.

 

Construction Worker

By sawing and nailing and drilling,
A construction worker can make quite a lot
A home or a barn or an office
We're glad for the talent he's got!

 

Cranes

Cranes reach up,
(reach up)
Cranes reach down,
(reach down),
Cranes reach out,
(reach straight out),
And all around.
(turn around).

 

This Is the Way We Build A House

(Sung to the tune of: "Mulberry Bush")

This is the way we (measure) the board,
(Measure) the board, (measure) the board.
This is the way we (measure) the board,
When we build a house.

Sing additional verses, replacing the underlined
word, in turn, with saw, sand, hammer, and paint.

 

I Want To Be A Carpenter

I want to be a carpenter and work the whole day long.    
I'll use a great big box of tools; my arms are very strong   
First, I'll saw and saw and saw, and cut the boards in two   
Little boards and big boards-all kinds of boards will do.   
I'll plane and plane and plane the boards for everyone is rough.   
Back and forth I'll plane the boards until they're smooth enough.   
I'll measure them and measure them - each one down to a T   
And then I'll start to build a house for me up in a tree!
