Title: Oliver Twist
Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pH_1m8oV_28
Grade Level: Kindergarten
Materials needed:
1. Bluetooth speaker
2. Youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pH_1m8oV_28
Procedure:
A.S: Have students name different body parts on their body. Wait until a student names knee’s or
toes. Have students show you they know where their knees and toes are to begin the warm up for
the dance they will learn
1.) Play the song for the students and have the students focus in on the words and what the
song is asking them to do
2.) Once students have listened to the song, teach them the movements. When the song says
“touch your knees” students will touch their knees, when the song says “touch your toes”
the students will touch their toes, “clap your hands” the students will clap their hands and
“around you go” students will spin in a circle
3.) Once students can follow the movements, then introduce the game. Students will make a
circle and one student will begin in the middle. The song will play and the students will
listen to the music and follow along with movements. When the song says “around you
go” the student in the middle will close their eyes and point a finger outwards and spin in
a circle. When the song ends the student will stop spinning and whoever their finger lands
on will become the new student in the middle.
Closure:
- Have students recall what the song said and what movements it had them do.
Educational Objective: By the end of this lesson, students will have learned…
- Listening to music and following instructions.
Music Standards Utilized:
CREATING Anchor Standard

CONNECTION Anchor Standard K.MU:Cn10

Social Emotional Learning Relationship Skills: students play a game
that involve dancing together and selecting
(SEL standards) other students to become the “it” person in
the center of the circle
Cognitive Learning Students will listen to the music, follow the
instructions based on what the music asks
them to do. Cognitively they will think
about, “touching your toes”, match the
song to the movement.
Physical Learning Students are listening to the music, to
follow along which movements they need
to follow along. By listening to the music
and moving their bodies, this helps them
commit the tasks at hand to memory
