Clapping Games

By -
Today on the lesson plan there is an activity for clapping songs.  Well I thought I would teach you some of my favorite clapping games.   The first one is a bit tricky.  So I suggest learning parts of it at a time until you move onto the next one.  This can take more than one day to learn.  So laugh at the mistakes and take a breath if you think it's too hard.  You'll see the mistakes and breaths we took too.

The words to the chant are:
Double, double, this, this
Double, double, that, that
Double this
Double that
Double, double, this, that


 The next clapping song is one we have done at school before.  It's a turn taking song so you can practice at home and decide who gets to be the teacher and the student :).

Here is a link for more clapping games!

Science Experiment

One of our favorite science activities is using baking soda and vinegar.  There are so many different ways to experiment with them.  Check out the video below for a fun idea!  I also like to add food coloring to small cups/jars of vinegar.  You can use any kind of dish to spread out baking soda.  Then with a dropper add the different colors of vinegar to it.  You can use medicine droppers, straws, or even small spoons to add the liquid to the powder. What did you observe?  Here is how it went out at our house. Kennedy and Keegan in action  Even my 5th grader Kellan was amazed!  When they were done they wanted to pour the cups out to see what would happen.  So cool!
