If you still want to give this a go!

Instructions

1. Follow the skeleton as it dances on the symbols and first clap or tap on every sign. When the sign rolls down the hill, make as many sounds as you can!

 

2. Decide on 4 different sounds for the 4 symbols – e.g. Circle = stamp, Cross = clap, Gear = chest, Triangle = knees/legs

 

3. If you're in class, split into 4 groups and take a symbol each, or 2 groups and take 2 symbols each.

Instructions

You will need to find things to make sounds with for this.

 

Make sure you have asked permission before doing this. You will need help from your family too.

You can download your sheets below.

Make at least two patterns.
