My daughter's Kindergarten teacher taught her students the days of the week by using the Addams Family theme song:
Addams Family
There’s Sunday and there’s Monday
Then Tuesday then there’s Wendsday
Then Thursday then Friday
And then comes Saturday
Days of the week (snap snap), days of the week (snap snap) days of the week, days of the week days of the week(snap, snap)
She taught them the month of the year by doing the Macarena dance!
Oh Montherena! - Months of the Year
Tune: Macarena
Do actions of Macarena as you sing/chant months of year. Do 4 times in square. This is definatly a class favorite!
January (R. Hand out palm down), Feb (L hand out palm down),
March (r. Palm up), and Apr. (L. Palm up)
May (R. Hand to L. Shoulder), June (L. Hand to R. Shoulder)
July (R. Hand behind head) and August (L. Hand behind head)
Sept. (R hand to l. Hip), Oct. (L. Hand to R. Hip)
Nov. (R. Hand to R. Hip), and Dec (L. Hand to L. Hip)
OH MONTHERENA! Yea (jump and turn ¼) repeat.
These work perfectly!!
