Playschool’s music class involves a lot of gross motor
movement as students sing and act out the lyrics.
In this song, students have just found out that
Grandma is coming for a visit, but oh no the house is messy so they must tidy
using their scarves.
Next the students sing about their feelings and demonstrate
the face that matches those feelings when they pull off their scarves. Students had the opportunity to show
their happy, grumpy, funny and sleepy faces.
Finally, the students listen to the teacher ringing bells to
try and hear what the bells say they should be doing. Sometimes the teacher rings
the bells quickly and the children jump up and down to the beat and sometimes
she makes them sound like a trotting horse by playing them in a choppy rhythm and
the children trot in a circle.
