This was the closing song to my kindergarten graduation ceremony. The children held battery-operated candles while singing in dimmed light. At the end of the song, they extinguished their "candles". It was a very touching end to their performance.

  • what is the name of the song . and do you know where i can get it

  • @1jwctexas The name is School Year Goodbye (to differentiate it from a goodbye song that children might sing at the end of each school day). I wrote it for my class's graduation finale.

  • How long would it take to teach a class of five year olds to sing that tune with at least 70% coherence?

  • None of my classes had any trouble with it. We had the months of the year (in chronological order) posted on the board and we recited them as part of our morning exercises. Perhaps that is what made the difference for them. We started practicing the script and songs about a month before graduation. Not all the songs were new, however, so this made memorizing the new material easier.

  • We also used visuals during the performance, eg, a cardboard jack o'lantern to represent October. This aided in the memorization of this particular song.

  • This is a cute song. I wish I saw it.

  • Kindergarten is such a special age. It was one of my favorite grades to teach.
