Baby Sign Language - Fun Activity
ItIf you are interested in learning some new sign language activities to teach your
students or child, I have a great song for you to learn, sing and sign. With the Fall season quickly approaching, I have a gross motor activity that is great for introducing children to the changes theyll be seeing outside in their world. Some of these things that are often seen and talked about during this time of year are: apples and nuts.The signs you will need to know for this song are apples and nuts. To sign apple, take the knuckle of your pointer finger and twist it next to your cheek, with your remaining fingers in a fist. To sign nuts, flick your thumb out from behind your 2 front teeth.
The following are the lyrics, which are sung to the tune of Ring Around the Rosie: Words in italics are signed.
Ring around the apples
Pocket full of nuts
Apples, apples
They all fall down
To make this even more interactive for students, have them turn in a circle for the line ring around the apples. Also have them fall down to the floor during the line they all fall down.
You can also substitute words other than ring, such as march, stomp, or jump. Any action word you can think of would be a great way to make it more fun for children and engage them in the activity. This is how it would work:
March around the apples
Pocket full of nuts
Apples, Apples
They all fall down.
Jump around the apples
Pocket full of nuts
Apples, Apples
They all fall down.
Keep going until you run out of action words. This is a great song to teach to help children learn the words apple and nuts. The best part is that they will have fun doing it!
