Musical Color Dots and Hide and Seek

Musical Colors Large Group

Students each get a turn to roll the dice and see what color it lands on, music is played and when it stops, everyone has to go find that color and stand on it. The more friends on a dot, the merrier!

Color's are a bit off in the picture but no worries, they're a lot more bold and 'standard' in real life!

Hide and Go Seek- The Game:

We practice saying the 'Hide and Seek' chant as a class:

Lets All Play Hide and Seek

Cover Your Eyes, Please Don’t Peek!

Then We’ll Count From 1 to 10

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Ready or Not, Here I Come! 

Then we choose a seeker and all the other student's hide while they say the chant including counting to 10 and saying, "Ready or not, here I come!".

The student then looks for the other students and are encouraged to use student's names as they find them. As they are found the other students come back to the rug and we talk about where they hid emphasizing prepositions including "under", "around", "in" and "behind". We also used distant words like, "closer," "nearer" and "over there". Once everyone is back, we review it once again and then start with a different seeker.
