Puncinella

This catchy song is great for:

  • Teaching the rhythmic element 'ka-tim'.
  • Preparing and practising the melodic element 'ti'.
  • Improvising actions.
  • For a challenge, the student who is 'Puncinella' can clap a four beat ostinato in verse 2 and the class can repeat it in verse 3!
