Lyrics
(Folk song)
The poor Queen of Sheba has lost her gold ring,
Guess who has found it.
Passing & Guessing Game
Formation: Students stand in a circle with both hands cupped. Two other students stand in the middle: Student A and B. (Student B is holding a ring.)
While students start to sing, Student B drops a ring into one student’s hands and pretends to drop the ring into all of the other students’ hands until the song ends. At the end, Student A tries to guess who has the ring.
