1. From CD Track 3: Hello, how are you?
You can demonstrate this song using one puppet on each hand - one puppet
'sings' the first line, and the other answers. You can also invite
individual children to reply to the question.
Aims: to encourage individual singing, to listen hard and learn to take
turns and to develop an understanding of phrases (musical sentances) through
question and answer.
2. From CD Track 18: Little Johnny dances
This is an action song from France. Use a puppet to dance on thumbs, arms
and heads in time to the pulse.
Aims: To develop locomotor co-ordination and to feel the pulse through the
actions.
3. From CD Track 20: I wiggle my fingers
A very useful rhyme for calming down a group of children after a lively
song. Wiggle fingers, toes, shoulders and nose in time with the chant. On
the last line stand very still with your arms folded.
