1. WAKE UP DOGGY!
SUMMARY You're a dog. Sleep like a dog. Now snore like a dog. Now wake up like a dog. SET –UP Show the class a picture of a dog. Tell the kids that they are dogs. Ask them to bark and wag their "tails". PLAY Get the students to lie on the floor. Tell them to sleep like dogs. The students should make cute little barking noises like a little dog snoring. If they don't understand, demonstrate for the students. Now ask the students to wake up like a dog. They can get up slowly and yawn and sound a little bark. Now ask the students to eat breakfast like a dog, run like a dog, and so on. Use any action words the kids have learned. Finally, get the students to lie down again and sleep like a dog. Repeat with other animals. USES 1. Review animals.
2. LOOK OUT!
SUMMARY There's a tiger under the blanket. Who is his next victim? Look out! It could be you! SET –UP Get the children to sit in a circle on their chairs like in the picture above. Take a blanket and place it in the middle of the students. Get everyone to hold onto the blanket and keep it raised above the floor. Now throw a stuffed animal (a tiger, lion, elephant, dog, bear) under the blanket. Tell the students to be careful the animal doesn't eat them. PLAY The students shake the blanket and start singing a short song or counting to ten. You go around the circle tapping the students on the shoulder. On the count of ten, or when the song is finished, the student whose shoulder was just tapped must shout "Oh no! The tiger is eating me (or some such thing)!" The student then slides under the blanket as if the tiger is pulling him under. Note that you will probably have to demonstrate this part by taking out the teddy tiger and pretending to eat the student. Motion for the child to get under the blanket. Now, repeat the song or the counting, and again, when it is finished, let another student shout and slide under the blanket. Repeat one or two more times and then get all the students under the blanket to come back up and sit down. Repeat all of the above with another animal under the blanket. Note: Don't let too many kids sit under the blanket at one time or you will have problems. USES 1. To teach or review animals.
