							| Hi! You can start with flashcards and play games (memory game, bingo, drawing a man) and then you can use the song "head, shoulders". When you feel they are ok with the vocabulary, you can play "Simon says" or an easier version of it, for example "touch the part of body I show you" or you can point to their fingers, nose and knees and ask them to name the parts.  |  15 Sep 2011

							| you can use some puppets and showing the body parts on the puppet would be great! and when it comes to the song: "Head and Shoulders " is the simplest song which would make the learning easier. 
 Here is a sample lesson video in which that song is used. There are 3 different classrooms here, watch all of them. Hope that it would be helpful. Wish you good luck:

							| IF you happy and you know it - song - use these expressions: stomp your feet, nod your head, wave your arms/hands, clap/shake your hands, cross your legs, scratch your ear/head, fold your arms...
 
 For pre-intermediate ss - raise your eyebrows, clench your fist, shrug your shoulders, point with your fingers, move your hips...

							| Hi! Some ideas for BODY PARTS teaching 4 year-olds: 
 Tell the a story: PINOCCHIO, very shortly and play with the kids naming some parts. 
 Sing this song with them, dancing and touching the body parts. 
 
 In this second video, the song is the same, but LOOK! the activities are different...  
 
 Look for a picture of Pinocchio and make a puzzle, so they can colour it first, cut it and finally glue it on a page. 
 That is a model class for me, which I have been using for more than 4 years now. I hope you find it useful! 
 Have a nice and entertaining beggining! And good luck! :)
