This silly song will get the kids making the sounds of English. Ram Sam Sam doesn't mean anything. Do the actions with the song, which keeps getting faster, so you can be a Ram Sam Sam Master!

Sing along, follow the directions and use these actions to the words:
• A ram sam sam -- slap both hands to your thighs in time to ram sam sam
• Guli guli -- hand over hand turning motion in front of you
(remember the /g/ sound is the same sound as the loud drinking sound in the back of your throat)
• A ra-vi -- hold your hand on your cheek as you tilt your head left then to the right.

Have an Action Race

This is a fun game using actions. Use actions like jump, hop, clap, run etc. Have the students split into two teams and sit in lines with a chair by each team and one chair at the other end of the room. One student from each team stands next to their chair and teacher calls an action, e.g. "Jump". Students must jump to the chair on the other side of the room and back, sitting down in their chair students say "I can jump". First one to do it gets their team a point. (Submitted by Gareth Thomas).
