Listen to the song "Listen to the Water" and put your picture cards in order as you sing!
Play the video again and sing along.
Watch the video and listen to the music.
How does it make you feel?
Students can use 2 paper plates, hands, or scarves for this movement.
Play the video and copy the movement.
Teach the song by rote. If you are not familiar with Spanish, use the recording and the pause button to rote teach. Play a phrase and pause it. Sing the phrase. Play the next phrase. Repeat it. Continue in this way until the students can sing the entire song. If it is too difficult for them, explain what the song means and listen to it in Spanish and play along with shakers and sticks.
Create actions that show what the song is about, but use the recording instead of singing yourselves. You could sing this in English if the Spanish is much too difficult for your students but students are such great mimics that even if you find it difficult, they may not. Act out or dramatize the song. Choose one student to be the mother. All the other students are the chicks.
Optional: Make a reproducible book of the song "Watch our Garden Grow".
This activity may be better for Grades 1 and 2 students who can read.
