Your Name
By Mrs. Alphabet

Shout your name very loud
Write your name inside a cloud!
Sing your name like a bird
Whisper your name so it's barely heard.
Spell your name say each letter
Cheer your name for us altogether.
Make an action while you spell for me
Like clap or jump and we'll all copy.
Pull your name out so we hear each sound
We'll hunt for the letters to be found.
Now we know who you are
You are our shining star!
