Preparation and materials
Assembly
- Ask if anyone can touch a finger to their nose (demonstrate).
Hopefully everyone will be able to! Ask if anyone can touch a finger to their
nose making the finger fly through the air first (demonstrate describing a path
through the air - not too big or children will not have enough room!). Repeat
the above, asking for a 'ping' sound on the end.
- Explain that now everyone is warmed up and ready to go, you're going
to read an action poem that you want everyone to join in with. They'll need to
listen carefully to find out what the actions are.
Here is my finger
It can fly through the air And land on my nose Just right there -
ping!
Here is my finger It can wiggle about Sometimes it's in
(finger drops down) And sometimes it's out. (finger points
up)
Here is my hand It's waving to you Sometimes there's
one And sometimes two. (both hands wave)
I can point at my
face I can point to the floor I can point to the sky And here's
something more
If I point all around Everywhere I see (point to
eyes) Many, many children (three quick points in different
directions) Doing just the same as me! (point to self)
- Explain that it can be fun to do things together. Ask for examples,
such as singing, sport and dancing. Sometimes we have to work hard to do things
together well. Sometimes we need to practise. If appropriate, repeat the poem,
trying to 'get it together' better.
Time for
reflection
Dear God, Thank you for
times when we can enjoy doing things with other people. In a time of quiet,
think to yourself of what you like to do best with other people. Thank you
for fun together, for singing together, for playing together, for being
together. Amen.
Song

waggly song' (Come and Praise Beginning, 34)
