Duck Song (Inflectional Endings -ed -ing -s, 1st grade)

I made up this song for a 3 day review lesson about Inflectional Endings.
I ended up changing some of the words and switching around the words to provide more academic language and structure that more strongly supplemented the curriculum.
The lesson is also supplemented with rubber ducks and word sorts.

Duck Song
By Lauren Ligocki

C G F C
Once there was a duck family
First there was the duck mommy
Three ducklings had lots of fun
Baby duckies 3, 2, 1

Let's sing first of duckling 3
Every day, so late was he
That is why we call him Ed
For him the ducks always wait-ed
While he
F C
Play-ed played
And look-ed looked
C G F
At the clouds in the sky
And he count-ed the stars
When they float-ed up high

Next there is sweet duckling 2
Always has something to do
That's why we call him --i-n-g
Never stopping his sing-ing
While he's
Play-ing
And look-ing
At the clouds in the sky
And he's count-ing the stars
As they're float-ing up high

Up front is tiny duckling 1
Always first to join the fun
His short name is Little S
Always does his very best
When he
Play-s plays
And look-s looks
At the cloud-s in the sky
And he count-s the star-s
As he floats by his brothers

C G F C
Now we know of ducklings 1, 2, 3
Ed, and S and --i-n-g
They all play their special parts
In our words and in our hearts
F C
So let's wave goodbye
But practice one more time
Look they're wave-ing goodbye to us
They wave-ed waved to us
G F C
See how everybody wave-s waves
We'll sing of you again some day
