We Love Our Mittens!

The December 2011 issue of Music Express had a great movement game and song about mittens in it that our 1st graders played this month. Each student brought a pair of mittens to class. They could bring their regular mittens/gloves, or get creative and bring silly mittens such as oven mitts or really large or small mittens. We then sang the song and played the game in class. The students had a blast trying to memorize what everyone's mittens looked like and clapping the steady beat with their mittens on.
