Tony Chestnut (Version 2)

This funny song becomes hilarious when you speed it up and try to fit in all the actions!

The song is great for:

• Practice controlling the beat in different tempi. (E.g. start the song slowly and each time you sing get faster without letting the song run away.)
• A song to warm up voices and bodies.
• Co-ordination.
• Teaching the time signature 4/4.
• Teaching rest grouping rules, e.g. when you can use 2x'sa' and when we should use a 'sa-aa'.
• Teaching melodic sequence.
• Prepare and practise the melodic element 'fa'.
