K-1 & K-1-2 - "Snowflake Song"

Ms. Mayer's and Ms. Raphael's classes -- here are the words to the California Indian song we have been learning. Since no one speaks Mono Piaute anymore, we don't know exactly what the words mean, but we do know that the song was sung during the first snowfall of the year.
