Timeline:
I hide the Timeline cards around the room before the kids arrive. We sing the Timeline song for week 13 as they look for the cards. Once they locate a card they sit in the middle of the room and wait for their friends. When all the cards have been found we will put them in order and sing through them.
History:
Motions and Song:
"steam engine" - fists up and down like pistons in engine
"power loom" - weave fingers together
"cotton gin" - crank "handle" in circular motion with hand
"Industrial Revolution" - hands together over shoulder, like holding a pickax, swing in downward motion
Latin:
We will squat down and whisper the singular endings then jump up and shout the plural endings.
English:
Action Cube
Science:
I will let the kids help choose some fun motions to do for this one.
Math:
Draw "Land of Gallon" on the board while quickly saying the story.
Story: Once upon a time in the Land of Gallon (Draw G) there lived 4 Queen Quarts (Draw Qs). Each Queen Quart had a Prince Pint and a Princess Pint (Draw Ps). And each Prince and Princess Pint had 2 cats (Draw Cs) who drank 8 ounces of water a day.
Point to letters and sing song.
Geography:
Noway (Norway) would I eat sweets (Sweden) on the fin (Finland) of a shark!
