It is important to remember that jazz chanting is not like
rapping, nursery rhymes, or songs, which distort the
spoken language for poetic effect. The rhythms, stress and
intonation pattern of the chant should be an exact replica
of what the student would hear from an educated native
speaker in natural conversation.

10. Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are.
When the blazing sun is gone,
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.
Then the traveler in the dark,
Thanks you for your tiny spark,
He could not see which way to go,
If you did not twinkle so.
In the dark blue sky you keep,
And often through my curtains peep,
For you never shut your eye,
Till the sun is in the sky.
As your bright and tiny spark,
Lights the traveler in the dark.
Though I know not what you are,
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.

30. Arch or catching songs:
ORANGES & LEMONS
Oranges and lemons,
say the bells of St. Clement’s;
You owe me five farthings,
say the bells of St. Martin’s;
When will you pay me?
say the bells of Old Bailey;
When I grow rich,
say the bells of Shoreditch;
When will that be?
say the bells of Stepney;
I do not know,
says the great bell of Bow;
Here comes a candle to light you to
bed,
and here comes a chopper to chop
off your head: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc.

47. Why to use rhymes?
• They are an alternative to the use of
graded readers.
• They have been successfully used in
Primary and Pre-Primary schools.
• They have a long tradition in English
speaking countries.
48. It’s raining, It’s pouring,
The old man’s snoring;
He went to bed,
And bumped his head,
And couldn’t get up in the morning.
50. Oh, The Grand Old Duke of York
He had ten thousand men
he marched them up to the top of the hill
and he marched them down again.
And when they were up, they were up.
And when they were down, they were
down.
And when they were half way up,
they were neither up nor down.

52. We can find a lot of these short poems. For
instance, Agatha Christie based many of
her novels in them, such as "Ten Little
Niggers", "The Crooked House", "A
Pocketful of Rye", "Three Blind Mice", etc.
There was a crooked man and he walked a crooked mile;
He found a crooked sixpence against a crooked stile;
He brought a crooked cat which caught a crooked mouse,
And they all lived together in a little crooked house.

53. Humpty Dumpty, the egg that fell from the wall, is
well known by all of the English speakers.

All the king's horses and all the king's men
couldn't put Humpty together again.

61. One, two, three, four, five,
Once I caught a fish alive
Six, seven, eight, nine, ten,

Which finger did it bite?
This little finger on the right.
62. This is the house that Jack built.
This is the malt that lay in the house that Jack built
This is the rat that ate the malt...
This is the cat that killed the rat...
This is the dog that worried the cat...
This is the cow with the crumpled horn that tossed the dog...
This is the maiden all forlorn, that milked the cow...
This is the man all tattered and torn that kissed the lady...
This the cock, that crowed in the morn,
That woke the priest all shaven and shorn,
That married the man all tattered and torn,
That kissed the maiden all forlorn,
That milked the cow with the twisted horn
That tossed the dog
That chased the cat
That killed the rat
That ate the malt
That lay in the house that Jack built.

adult, and walks using a cane in his old age. Of course morning, noon, and
night are metaphors for the times in a man's (person's) life. Such metaphors
are common in riddles.
5. A wooden coffin. The man who made it did not want it because he was not

Take this to my loving beauty.
Postman, postman, do not tarry
take this to the one I'll marry
