Oh yes, the silly songs of education. or silly sentences..
HOMES (for the five US great lakes--not in order, (any order!) but it still works!)
My Very Educated Mother Just Sat Upon Noodle Pudding
equals
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupitor, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, (Pluto) --the planets in order!
I before E, except after C
or when sounded as A, (as in neighbor or weigh!)
Garrison Kellior (i used to listen regularly now.. not so regularly) used to have 'the department of folk songs" for many of these silly songs that help remember spelling (encyclopedia!) or grammer, or FACTS.
now, the kids don't know the songs, and worse, don't know the facts!
