All "Dosug"

"What's the Time Mr. Wolf?"
Many of you will already know this game, but for those who don't, "What's the Time Mr. Wolf?" is great fun and useful practice of time and numbers, if you have the space for it! There are two versions: In version one, one child is chosen to play the wolf, and walks around the room-the others follow him/her around calling "What's the time, Mr. Wolf", and the wolf can reply with a time, in which case the call is repeated; or (s) he says "Dinner time", turns round and tries to catch another child, who then becomes the wolf. In version two, the wolf sits at one end of the room, the other children sit at the other end, and when the wolf says the time, the others have to take that number of paces across the room. When one child reaches the wolf's end, the wolf can try and catch another child as they run back to the other end-this child then becomes the new wolf.

10 Green Bottles song
The song has 10 verses and goes like this: '10 green bottles standing on a wall, 10 green bottles standing on a wall, but if 1 green bottle should accidentally fall...(pregnant pause) there'll be 9 green bottles standing on the wall.' '9 green bottles standing on a wall, 9 green bottles standing on a wall, but if 1 green bottle should accidentally fall... (pregnant pause) there'll be 8 green bottles standing on the wall.'
And so on until '...there'll be no green bottles standing on the wall.'
Sing the original song as a group.
Adapt the song so you have as many green bottles as there are students, e.g. 8 children in class begin '8 green bottles standing on a wall...' Put the students in a line along the classroom wall and sing together. Each time a bottle falls in the song the child at the end leaves the line and sits down.
Instead of bottles have animals so '10 brown monkeys sitting in a tree..' etc with appropriate animal noises and gestures
