We are so excited to present FLAKES! for our Grade 3 Winter Concert. The concert will take place Wednesday, December 6 at 1:00 and 7:00pm in the gym. (The storm date will be December 7)
It's wintertime wherever you are and all of the Flakes are showing up to shiver and shine. The North wind is starting to blow and temperatures are dropping to ten below - zero, that is! A big blizzard is on the way as a cool bunch of jazzy, finger-snappin' snowflakes take center stage. What a glistening sight. UH OH! Here comes the snowplow! Join the fun as the Flakes and Snirts help the Littlest Snowflake see how no two flakes are alike and we are all special in our own way!

The north wind starts to blow now.
Looks like it's gonna snow now.
Your fingers will freeze, your lips and cheeks will chap!
The ski is turning grey now.
The sun has gone away now,
'Cause out of the blue, we're getting a cold snap!
It's a cold snap! Cold snap! We're gonna be ready for that
Cold snap! Cold snap! Grab your cap and tighten the strap.
Check the map, the weather on tap's a cold snap!
It starts with just a few flakes;
Add wind until your house shakes.
You windows will rattle, and your shutters clap!
Your breath will freeze midair now.
You'll slip slides everywhere now.
Right out of the north, look out, it's a cold snap!
CHORUS
Grab your skates and find you sled.
Bring a board, we're gonna shred!
Keep that warm hat on your head...
I THINK I'M GOING BACK TO BED!
Don't you love it, when it snows?
See that snowman's funny nose.
Snowball fights where anything goes!
YEAH, BUT I CAN'T FEEL MY TOES!
Skaters waltzing, sleigh bells ring.
Let's all go tobogganing!
Pure, white snow on everything
WHY CAN'T WE JUST CUT TO SPRING!? COME ON!
Nothing to do BUT TO BRING IT ON!
CHORUS
It's a cold snap!

Sorry everybody, we know that it's cold here.
It has to be, or you might see a melting unfold here.
No need to worry, just give usa break.
We're cold as ice, but awfully nice: That's just like a flake!
If you go out walking and take any old street, you probly know that we're the snow and cousins to cold sleet!
If you get chilled and you shiver and shake, well
Don't be blue, cause each of you just ran into a flake!
CHORUS
We're flakes, nothin' but flakes
Got what it takes! Comin' down all around you.
Flakes! Proud to be flakes, you and me!
Ya gotta love us, can't get enough of us.
Goodness snows and goodness sakes, we're nothing but flakes!
Blowing in the wind puts us all in a tizzy!
No wonder why, up in the sky, we all get so dizzy!
Flakes are so happy; we have so much fun.
We love a squall, but then we're all terrified of the sun!
CHORUS
Don't be afraid of us, snowmen are made of us.
Goodness snows and goodness sakes, we're proud to be
FLAKES! FLAKES! FLAKES!

We're makin' a mess where the snow used t' be!

Yeah what you get it is what we call....
SNIRT!
Nothing Special
Here I am on top of a snow bank.
Don't know what to do.
Here I am surrounded by my friends.
Why do I feel blue.
With all of us together, protected from the sun,
why do I feel so lonely? Why don't I have any fun?
It's 'cause I'm nothing special, nothing new, so easy to ignore.
It's 'cause I'm nothing special, nothing new.
Been there, done that; It's all been done before.
Been there, done that; It's all been done before.
Everyone feels all alone sometimes, even in a crowd.
Just a bunch of little flakes with their heads up in a cloud.
They say no two are alike, now. They say there is no doubt.
But I see more of the same, now. Don't know what it's all about.
It's 'cause I'm nothing special, nothing new, so easy to ignore.
It's 'cause I'm nothing special, nothing new.
Been there, done that; It's all been done before.
Been there, done that; It's all been done before.
One in a Million
As you grow, you look all around
Feels like you're "more of the same"
Like any other one... here comes another one...
just with another name.
Then someone show they are about you.
They shelter you from the sun
Now there is only you...there never could be two...the only one!
You're one, one in a million!
No other 'neath the sun.
You're one, one in a million!
And the reasons you're special are a million in one.
Just one in a million, but you're a million in one!
Deep inside, it's your song to sing.
No one can sing it like you.
And when you start your song, you'll see before too long, it's really true!
