Body part Boggie

For this game you’ll need recorded music that lends itself to movement. Ask the children to stand in a circle or have them scatter throughout the room. Tell them they must stand completely still, like statues. Play a piece of music and designate just one body part for the children to move to the music (for example, a head, an arm, a foot, a leg, fingers). When you pause the music, they must freeze again This is an experience with the content area of music. The activity requires active listening, which is part of emergent literacy. Body-part identification falls under the heading of science.
