							| How old are your students? How many will be performing? 
 Have your students been studying a particular theme?
 
 When I was in Kindergarten my class performed a show about animal knowledge. Each child said one sentence about an animal. my sentence was "The turtle says nothing." Other students said sentences such as "The cow says moo", "The duck says quack quack."
 
 Everyone likes food. If students are at a beginning level, each student could hold up a piece of fruit and tell the audience what color it is. "The apple is red." "The grapes are purple" "The banana is yellow". If you don �t want to use real fruit, the students can make fruit pictures on stiff tagboard or cardboard to show the audience. If you have talented mothers who sew, they could make fruit costumes for the students to dress up as fruits.
 
 If your class has been studying  the environment, maybe each student could say a sentence of how  he can help the environment. "I recycle." "I don �t waste water."  "I save electricity" "I planted a tree"  "I ______."
 
 Is there a holiday coming up  near the time of the presentation?
 Holidays sometimes provide themes  or traditional songs.

							| You could do one of the "There was a Polish, a Russian and a German" jokes and extend it �s version to other languages. You can make an English win or they can all lose and a neutral animal can win incidentally doing sth which people couldn �t.
