  1. I LOVE this chant/poem and I do a song with it and a shoe passing game. I had to chuckly because the powerpoint that I made for this song has the exact same image!!! Lol, great minds think alike!!

    And great ideas, as always! You are amazing Beth!

  2. I’m doing this song with my 1st graders this week by chance. Using Boomwhackers. I was wondering what grade you do it with. I liked your lesson plan very much. I love your website. This is very exciting to have found.
