This song also provides opportunities for the students to explore different ways of moving, but in this case, following specific directions: down, up, in and out. If you’re doing this in the gym, give each student a hula hoop and have them perform the movements in (and out of) the hoop. You might play this as a game where the students change hoops each time they sing. In the music room, you could use big dots on the floor and have students change dots. This song is also included as reinforcement of the Week 1 lesson - following directions.

Use this song to show how the notes go high, middle, and low. Sing the song and show how the notes go with arm motions or use the body scale. If some students are unclear, have the students join hands and do this with hands joined.

If needed, slow the video down using the gear at the bottom right side of the video.

Read the "Gingerbreadman Story." Whenever the gingerbread man says “Run, run, as fast as you can. You can’t catch me I’m the gingerbread man,” sing it instead of saying it. You could dramatize the story with students wearing masks, or you could show the characters on a story board.

Teachers with Orff instruments could accompany the singing with a simple bordun on the beat. Create a dance to go with the song. Use the dance in the performance of the story
