Activity 1 Warm up your spine

3 Curl back up to your starting position. Repeat four times.


4 Swing your arms from side to side while you walk around the room, freezing and then walking again.


Activity 2 Warm up your voice


1 Listen to the High and Low song. Your teacher will play it for you. 2 Divide into two groups – one group will sing the high notes and the other group sings the low notes. Sing only the chorus.


Activity 3 Make music and dance


You will need to bring an empty, clean and rust-free cooldrink can to school. 1 Hit your two cans together, rub them together and hit them on the floor.
