Here is a little musical introduction song game idea

Title – An Introduction Game
By – Elizabeth Dick
Primary Subject – Music
Secondary Subjects - 
Grade Level – K-3

I have re-written words to the song “My Paddle’s Clean and Bright” for boys and girls. I sing the song to the class and point to a child who then gets up, does the motion and then sits down again.

The boy’s words are:

Hello there jumping boy.
Let’s play a game.
With a big leap for joy,
Tell me your name.

The girl’s words are:

Hello there dancing girl.
Let’s play a game.
With a big whirl and a twirl,
Tell me your name.

The variations are endless.

I have also used for steady beat activities. The kids clap their hands while singing:
Hello there clapping class.
Let’s play a game.
With a big clap of your hands,
Tell me your name.
