What color song


10 Color Songs Videos to Teach How to Spell Color Words – KindergartenWorks

Teach color words with the ever-popular frog street press color songs. Here are the top color word songs on video, in my opinion, for kindergarten.

I don't know about you but we used these songs repeatedly to teach how to spell color words in kindergarten. In fact, I love using songs so much that I created more songs to teach every sight word required by our district!

I'll list the videos for each color and let you know what is listed for each color. Plus, I share how I taught a few of these songs to my five and six year old students with great success.

It's my hope that by listing these all in one place you won't have to go searching for them in the future. There are a few free printables and resources at the end so be sure to check them out.

Use songs to learn to spell color words

The color songs were used to help build up the number of sight words my students knew and they also functioned as shared reading pieces.

Once students were familiar with the songs, they would practice the new sight words in these literacy centers:

  • library center (small printed books of the songs)
  • big book center (large 11x17 printed version books of the songs
  • poetry center (printed on to sentence strips and word cards)
  • listening center (small printed books with CD of song played multiple times)
  • abc center (stamp the color words)
  • pokey pin center (pin the color words in a sentence/phrase)
  • word work center (build with playdough)

Color songs for kindergarten

Let's start with the red color song. This one is pretty short and is a great introduction to learning sight words.

This song lists just two things that are red: firetrucks and stop signs. This is a very short song.

For that reason, it's usually the first or second song I teach and also because the letters R-E-D (or even r-e-d) look from one another. Makes it easier for new little kinder eyes to distinguish between at the beginning of the year.

This Y-E-L-L-O-W color song lists these yellow things: baby ducks, daffodils, the sun, lemonade, scrambled eggs and a smiley face.

I taught motions with this song because there are a lot of items in it. I just made up the motions so you can too! Just keep them consistent the next time you sing the song {wink}

Here is a yellow color song video you can download.

Sung to a familiar tune, the O-R-A-N-G-E color song feels a bit awkward to start but you'll quickly pick it up. It lists jack o'lanterns, oranges and carrots.

It's a great one to introduce after you've covered blue, red and yellow.

This is an orange color song video you can download.

Blue is the first or second color word I taught. The sky and the ocean are the only two things listed in it, which makes the blue color word song on the same level as the red one.

This B-L-U-E song speeds up at the end which is really fun for the kinders. They love it.

Here's another version of the B-L-U-E spells blue song. I add motions to this one so that when they speed up we can get really silly.

This is a blue color song video you can download.

While we were at our seats doing an art project I would put on a playlist of the songs (but without visuals as to not distract the easily distractable kinders - like by turning off your computer monitor). They would softly sing along as they worked and it was great review of all the songs keeping them fresh the whole year through.

The G-R-E-E-N song is one of my favorites. It may be because they have one or two other color words under their belt and pick up this one pretty fast as a result.

The green color word song lists: caterpillars and grasshoppers. It's easy to create motions for.

I love using this word later in the school year too as a way to teach the "ee" vowel pattern since they've seen it in this word a gazillion times.

The black color song feels kind of long and has a few more obtuse things in it... like do most kids even know what Sunday shoes are anymore? It's catchy though which is helpful since there a lot of things listed: bats, jelly beans, cats, Sunday shoes and Santa's boots.

If you're longing for the little printable book template that goes with the color books then you'll appreciate this next version of the B-L-A-C-K song.

Here is a black color song video you can download.

I used these printable little books and enlarged them onto colored construction paper. I laminated them and bound one side.

They made for a great first set of big books for our big book literacy center and made teaching the words whole group a little easier with such a large model.

Okay, I'll admit that the B-R-O-W-N song is my least favorite. it's sung to the tune of Bingo, which may have something to do with it. .. but it may be because there are a good number of things listed.

The brown song includes: teddy bears, chocolate milk, chocolate candies, leaves, chocolate cake and squirrels.

Here is a brown color song video you can download.

It also could be that this one was tough to come up with motions for {wink} We did a "hug" for teddy bear since it was the only thing I could come up with on the spot. But, no matter whether I like it or not, using songs to teach really does work!

It's one of the secrets of teaching kindergarten I used all the time.

What I haven't mentioned yet was that part of the motions for learning these color songs is that we sign the letters.

Yep - we use sign language to spell out each color word. We use sign language every day along with our alphabet chart so we get really good at fingerspelling.  Plus, I like to teach a few other signs to use so I can communicate across the classroom (or the gym during assembly) without speaking a word.

Being able to say, "Sit down!" or "Go!" without having to utter an actual word is pretty priceless... and goes a lot farther than just using the teacher eye I've perfected. Just sayin'

The purple song goes pretty fast for fingerspelling, but that makes it fun.

Here is an alternative P-U-R-P-L-E color song with a white background instead of balck in case that's easier on the eyes.

Purple includes these items: grapes and Kool-aid.

Here are two versions of the white color song. My kinders loved this color word song because they could get loud with saying "Boo!" and "Ho, ho, ho!"

The W-H-I-T-E song by frog street press has two verses and includes these white things: clouds, snow, ghosts, milk, glue and Santa's beard.

Here is a white color song video you can download.

And lastly - we've got the color pink.

I'll admit this one took me the longest to learn! The P-I-N-K color song goes fast because it is sung to the tune of Jingle Bells.

I usually saved this color song until later in the school year even though the word is shorter. You just don't see the word pink as often as the primary colors in most early leveled readers.

The pink color word song includes: cotton candy, pigs, Valentines, icing, bubble gum, balloons, girls with sock and bows.

Here is a pink color song video you can download.

Lavender, Yellow tulips, Forget-me-not, Daisies, Pink roses and 15 more hits

Alla Pugacheva. Photo: globallookpress

Our ranking of the top 20 best songs about flowers presents a bunch of compositions arranged in chronological order by Alla Pugacheva, Natasha Koroleva, Zemfira, Ivanushki International, Night Snipers and other performers. Enjoy the aroma of memories and listen to time-tested hits!

1. Song "Oh, the viburnum is blooming"

  • Released: 1950
  • First performers: Klara Luchko, Ekaterina Savinova
  • Authors: Isaac Dunayevsky (music), Mikhail Isakovsky (lyrics)

“Oh, the viburnum is blooming in the field by the stream. I fell in love with a young guy" , - for the first time these lines were heard in the film "Kuban Cossacks" directed by Ivan Pyryev. The film was conceived as a beautiful story about love and happiness - about what people lacked so much in the post-war years.

To compose the music for the film, Pyryev turned to composer Isaac Dunayevsky and poet Mikhail Isakovsky. The latter never considered himself a songwriter, although earlier many of his poems, set to music, went to the people. Moreover, he never wrote "to order" for the cinema. However, he nevertheless gave his consent, and the work began to boil. As a result, all five songs involved in the film were written by Isakovsky (although some, but not about viburnum, in collaboration with the poet Mikhail Volpin). And the composition “Oh, the viburnum is blooming” rightfully won popular love.

2. Song "Lilies of the valley"

  • First performer: Gelena Velikanova
  • Released: 1958
  • Authors: Oskar Feltsman (music), Olga Kleiner (lyrics)

According to the memoirs of the composer Oscar Feltsman, he wrote a song to the verses of the poetess Olga Kleyner (Fadeyeva) in just 15 minutes, gave it to the performer Gelena Velikanova and went to rest in the south, two weeks later received a letter from Velikanova stating that "Lilies of the valley" now all of Moscow sings.

However, despite the huge popularity, the song soon fell under the rink of the Soviet worldview. On the “order” of the Central Committee of the CPSU, creative unions were looking for works that promote vulgarity, and the most “successful” example turned out to be “guilty” of their ingenuity “Lilies of the Valley” with their “small volume”. Even the term “lily of the valley literature” appeared, which supposedly conveyed an unjustifiably light attitude to life, an unwillingness to look deep into. It got to the point that in the composition they even saw attempts to morally corrupt the youth and anti-Soviet sentiments.

The persecution of the song by the authorities lasted for more than 20 years - while ordinary people adored these lines: “Today you brought me not a bouquet of lush roses, not tulips and lilies . ..”

Over the years “Lilies of the Valley "performed by Nina Dorda, Lyudmila Senchina, Elena Ionova, Yulia Ziganshina, Ekaterina Guseva and others.

3. Anna German "When the Gardens Bloomed"

  • Released: 1977
  • Authors: Vladimir Shainsky (music), Mikhail Ryabinin (lyrics)

“The gardens bloom once a year. Spring of love is expected once" - for the first time the song was performed at the final concert of the music festival "Song of the Year" in 1977. Anna Herman insisted that the composition must be performed live, and became the only one who worked on stage without a soundtrack. According to the memoirs of the composer Vladimir Shainsky, the audience greeted the song with a frantic ovation and asked to perform an encore. Usually, at concerts of a detailed kind, sharpened for television, the timing is calculated by the minute, and such liberties were not allowed. But in this case, an exception was made - the enthusiasm of the audience was so strong.

Interestingly, before Herman, no one wanted to take the song "When the Gardens Bloom" into their repertoire - probably because of the naive and overly "pop" (although there was no such word then) text. However, the performer managed to present the story of the abandoned lyrical heroine in such a way that she became a real hit. Shainsky himself, having heard the song performed by Herman for the first time, exclaimed: “I didn’t even imagine that it could be sung like that!”

In the 90s "When the Gardens Bloomed" Lada Dance took to her repertoire. Her concerts are still not complete without this imperishable.

4. Mikhail Boyarsky "City Flowers"

  • Released: 1981
  • Authors: Maxim Dunayevsky (music), Leonid Derbenev (poetry)

The song "City Flowers" performed by Mikhail Boyarsky was first performed in the Soviet musical comedy Where Will He Go, directed by Georgy Yungvald-Khilkevich. Subsequently, in 1983, Boyarsky released an album of the same name.

According to the memoirs of the composer Mikhail Dunaevsky, the poet Derbenev came to him with a single line ("city flowers, city flowers") and in full confidence that this was a future hit. Dunayevsky wrote the music, keeping only this phrase in his head, and only then Derbenev composed poems that fit the resulting melody.

However, the composer was not completely satisfied with the result - he thought that the song turned out to be too "tavern". In part, he was right - they really liked to perform this composition in restaurants: “City flowers, city flowers, you have captured my heart forever!”

  • Year: 1982
  • Authors: Raymond Pauls (music), Andrey Voznesensky (lyrics)

The TV premiere of the song "A Million Scarlet Roses", which later became one of Alla Pugacheva's calling cards, took place on January 1983 years on the air of the New Year's TV show "Attraction", which was filmed at the Circus on Tsvetnoy Boulevard in Moscow. According to the plan, the prima donna was supposed to perform most of the composition on a swing swinging in the arena, the role of which was played by a circus trapeze. And at one fine (actually terrible) moment for the singer, the trapeze, contrary to plans, soared to a 20-meter height - and despite the fact that Pugacheva, of course, did not use any insurance. Not a single muscle trembled on the face of the star - she played her role to the end, only later confessing to her partner in the number - the illusionist Igor Kio, that the only thing she is afraid of in life is heights.

It should be noted that the plot of the song is based on the legend of the Georgian artist Niko Pirosmani, who was in love with the French actress Margarita de Sevres, and the Primadonna herself, to put it mildly, did not consider this composition among her favorites. “I rested my horn on the Million Roses. How I didn't love her! The more I didn’t love her, the more popular she became, ”recalled Alla Borisovna.

6. Lyudmila Senchina "Wild Flowers"

  • Released: 1983
  • Authors: Raymond Pauls (music), Andrey Kovalev

"Don't give me purchased flowers - gather me a bouquet of the field, so that I believe, so that you feel - these are our flowers, only our flowers" , - this song became one of the visiting cards of the "Cinderella of the Soviet stage" Lyudmila Senchina . She first performed it with her "crystal voice" at Blue Light in 1983.

The second wave of popularity overtook the song in 2018 - however, on a very tragic occasion: the performer died of cancer. Those whose youth fell at the peak of Senchina's creativity returned to their favorite compositions, including "Field Flowers", and the recording of this song on the net was again full of enthusiastic comments.

7. Sofia Rotaru and Jaak Yoala "Lavender"

  • Released: 1985
  • Authors: Vladimir Matetsky (music), Mikhail Shabrov (lyrics)

The song was commissioned by the Central Television of the USSR. Composer Vladimir Matetsky composed a measured, lyrical melody and offered to write a text about lavender to the poet Mikhail Shabrov. All that the latter knew about lavender was that there is such a remedy for moths, and he got into the encyclopedia, finding out that "mountain lavender" is such a medicinal flower. So the phrase “mountain lavender” began to spin in his head, but things did not go beyond this for a long time.

The situation was saved by Valentin Kataev's Youthful Romance, which once fell under the arm of Shabrov. The book contains the words: "Blue lavender flowers run from the mountains to the sea." They inspired the poet to the line "Our meetings with you are blue flowers. " And then everything around her spun.

By the way, the idea that this composition should be performed by the duet of Sofia Rotaru and Jaak Yoala belongs to Alla Dmitrieva, the editor of the Song of the Year festival, to whom the authors showed the newly written song. It was first performed on the air of the New Year's "Spark" 1985-1986 years. Subsequently, Philip Kirkorov and Nikolai Baskov became Rotaru's partners in composition.

8. Tender May "White Roses"

  • Released: 1987
  • Author: Sergey Kuznetsov

The song "White Roses" was written in December 1986 by Sergei Kuznetsov immediately after the first performance of the group "Tender May". “White roses, white roses are defenseless thorns. What did the snow and frost do to you, the ice of the blue shop windows? - these and other lines were born literally in a matter of minutes.

Recall that the musical group "Tender May", whose soloist was 13-year-old Yura Shatunov, was created in the Orenburg boarding school from among the students, and Kuznetsov himself was the leader of the circle. The guys recorded the song "White Roses" on a regular audio cassette, duplicated it and gave it to the judgment of the inhabitants of Orenburg. In this form, in 1988, she accidentally got through third parties to producer-manager Andrei Razin, who a few weeks later moved Tender May from Orenburg to the capital and began to “sculpt” stars out of boys.
