Lyrics
(Traditional chant)
Jean Jean dressed in green
Went downtown to eat ice cream.
How many scoops did she eat?
One two three
Game
Students sit in circle. I point to one student at a time on the rhythm while students pat rhythm. The 3 students I point to on the numbers “1,2,3” go to the middle of the circle and play woodblocks or drums on the rhythm the next time.
