Pets - 1ºA


Hello!
Yesterday, the first graders lesson started with the adaptation of the well known song "Who let the dogs out?" It goes like this:

"Who let the dogs out ?
woof, woof, woof

Who let the dogs out ?
woof, woof, woof
 Who let the cats out?
miow, miow, miow
Who let the cats out?
miow, miow, miow
Who let the hamster out?
hi hi hi hi
Who let the hamster out?
hi hi hi hi
Who let the bird out?
piu piu piu
Who let the bird out?
piu piu piu

After that I taught them a chant which involved more animal names and the body coverings.
They chanted and made some rhythm with clapping , tapping legs, tapping the table...etc
 The chant was like this:

Turtle , guinea pig , fish
Turtle , guinea pig , fish
Turtle , guinea pig 
Turtle , guinea pig , 
Turtle , guinea pig , fish

shell , fur and scales
shell , fur and scales
shell , fur
shell , fur 
shell , fur and scales

We repeated this faster and slower and afterwards we started another activity: I gave the students a milk carton and various materials and asked them to create an animal puppet.
Then they presented it to the class

At the end I presented an african musical instrument to the class, the calimba and we used/played it with the previous chant. I also let some students try to play the calimba
