'Popcorn', from 'I Am A Tree' by Nancy Kopman

A song with an exciting ending to anticipate is ALWAYS a big hit with kids. When you teach "Popcorn", first practise these actions as a group:

1. SITTING STILL
2. ROLLING
3. SHAKING
4. POPPING

You can experiment with different ways in which you can demonstrate these actions. You don't have to limit them to full body actions!

Try just using:

1. Your fists/hands/fingers
2. One finger at a time (which finger is easiest to follow the actions with?)
3. Your pencil on a piece of paper
4. Your fingers dipped in paint on paper (Use yellow to make popcorn art!)
5. Your eyes
6. Your mind
