SUMMARY - Lodz, PM 163, Poland

The last journey in "One song - one voice" program took place in Birmingham in July. This meeting was full of good memories and friendly feelings. We went through all great activities which we did during past 2 years and discussed what was a success and what should be done in a bit different way. Concert in Cotteridge school gave us ideas how much we can achive even with the youngest. We had a walk not only through our memories but also history. Visiting place of birth of William Shakespeare was a great experience where we could not only see part of English history but also talk to friends who we meet during the project.


The whole project was unforbetabble experience and gave as a lot as teachers as well as normal people, because "diving" in other cultures always brings surprises. Those which happened here were luckily the good ones.
We hope we will stay in contact and maybe meet during some other projects.
Best wishes from Kindergarten in Lodz.
Alles gute von Kindergarten in Lodz.

Last week in our kindergarten children dressed in spring colors started to presented specially prepared for this event short song about spring. Everyone was delighted viewed children's performances ;)

Austrian running game

One child is the hunter, the other children are the rabbits.

The hunter has a soft ball and has to catch all the rabbits.

If the rabbits get caught, they will have to sit down on the bench (or a special place).

Austrian Running game

Description:

The children form a circle and sit down on the floor.

One child walks around the circle and touches the head of every child with his hand and says: duck, duck, duck, duck, duck ...... but when the child says fox, the chosen child has to stand up and try to catch the other child.

If the first child reaches the free place without being caught from the other child, it has to sit down. So the new child has to walk around the circle and the game starts again.

If the first child is not able to reach the free place it needs to do it again and the chosen child can sit down on his place.

Variation: Instead duck, you can say your favorite pet, for example: My favorite pet is a cat, so you have to say cat, cat, cat ... fox.
