Grade Level: K-2

Flash Cards – Body parts

Set up – Have a fun song in the cd player, and when you start the music, the children must dance around the room, when you stop the music, put up a body flash card, or just yell out the vocabulary. Then the children must find a partner and touch the appropriate body part on the other child for example,
* Hands – touch palms of hands together and sit down,
* Feet/Toes – lay down on their backs and put the souls of their feet
together,
* Shoulders – get back to back with the partner and sit down
* Knees – kneel down in front of each other knees touching,

But there is a crazy catch, if you yell out Head, the kids must find a partner and do the head shoulders knees and toes song as fast as they can then sit down.
