The elephant goes like this and that, this and that, this and that.
(Walk heavily and stomp feet loudly)
The elephant goes like this and that, cause he's so big and fat!
(Puff up cheeks and stretch out arms)

He has no fingers and has no toes, He has no fingers and has no toes.
(Wiggle fingers; wiggle toes)
He has no fingers and has no toes, But goodness, gracious, what a nose!
(Stick arms out like a long trunk.) Ethel was a hen who laid ten eggs (Hold up ten fingers)
Each chick hatched and had two legs (make an egg with hand then hold up two fingers)
They would play and have their fun. (Hold up ten fingers and wiggle them)
But when Ethel called, they would come (motion in a come here motion)
The elephant has a trunk for a nose (bend at waist, hold arms down like trunk)
And up and down is the way it goes (sway arms)
He wears such a saggy, baggy hide (sway arms)
Do you think two elephants could fit inside? (shrug) How to make your body into an E
To be a big E, Just sit right down.
Stretch your legs out, And try not to frown.

Hold out your left arm, Stretch it out far.
Bend your other arm, And there you are.
An elephant went out to play
On a spider web one day
He (she) was having so much fun
He (she) invited another one
Come on (name)

Note: Have your children stand in a circle with one in the middle, each verse have them invite another student in. A circus elephant I went to see (Hold hand over eyes like binoculars)
He had four legs and was bigger than me. (Hold up four fingers and then point to self)
He had two ears big and round (Show two fingers and make a circle with hands)
And one long nose that made a sound errrrr (Make elephant trunk with arm)
