“Why can I not touch the sun?”
“Can I eat the moon?”
“Can I touch the star?”
Teacher provide two sets of hand-made materials with models of the sun, the moon, the star, the cloud, the rain, the grass, and the tree on the top. Each model has a colored bell below.
Teacher points to the wheel, and kids chant together “Spin the wheel, spin the wheel.”and teacher spins the wheel while kids watch as it slows to point to only one name. The kid selected uses a pencil to hit the bell under the sun, he will say: “I can see the sun in the sky.”
Then, teacher uses the pencil to hit the bells in a sequence that represents the song they know, and kids recognize it as the nature song. All the kids sing the song together.
