"Elmer's special day" story

 I would choose the story: "Elmer's special day."

It's almost Elmer's Day again and the elephants have begun their preparations. But in all the excitement they are making an awful lot of noise and upsetting the other animals.

The activity that he would carry out would be the elaboration of a party blower decorated as the students want. Materials: Paper sheet Straw Scissor Scotch tape Elastic band Steps: 1) Cut about four centimeters from the paper. 2) Fold one side of the paper to the center. 3) We do the same with the opposite side. 4) We stick the paper with the adhesive tape so that the folds made do not come apart. 5) Now we fold the corners of one of the ends inwards. 6) Achieving that it ends in a semi-triangular point. 7) We fold the tip and stick with adhesive tape. 8) We roll up the piece of paper that you have formed with the help of the straw. We use the elastic band to hold the roll. 9) Put the straw into the paper roll, fold the excess material from the sides. 10) Paste and secure with the adhesive tape. The party blower is ready for fun!

Twelve Days of Christmas

  Singing Christmas songs is a great part of the Christmas celebration! As we are soon on holidays, carols are perfect to put you in the right Christmas mood. So I will make a tambourine using this link. It is taken from the web Hamish gave us https://www.seispinguinos.com/reciclinstrumentos.html I will song Twelve Days of Christmas, which is a very fun song to sing with kids but also with some teens! I will use it with my group of PMAR students. It is a cumulative song, which means that each verse is built on top of the previous verses. So this song has got 12 verses -12 days. The first verse is short, but the following verses are getting longer and longer. It seems simple but it isn't. The song is perfect to help my students count, revise numbers as well as learning vocabulary. On the other hand, it hasn't got any religious content so this song is perfect for diversity and my students always have fun! I will use make the tambourine with them and I will use it while sin

Boomwhackers tubes

  In this project, we will create percussion tubes, that is, boomwhackers tubes (they are sound tubes that when struck emit a certain tone) and then we will use them to reproduce a song with English lyrics. We will start by creating the percussion tubes. To do so, we will need PVC tubes of different sizes so that each one sounds in a different way. We will make seven different sizes to simulate the 7 musical notes, and each one will be painted in a different color, to better differentiate the sounds. We will create at least two tubes for each student. Then we will start practicing the song that in this case I have chosen "In the Jungle, the mighty jungle ...". We will have the lyrics printed so that we can work on their vocabulary and learn it together with the melody. Later we will try to recreate the song with the boomwhackers tubes, while the melody of the song plays in the background and we sing the lyrics all together. Next I leave the link of this project that we are
