Kitty Kitty in Your House

This week for Large Group, we played Kitty Kitty in Your House.  To play this game, Teacher Heidi was the mouse and all the kids were the kitties.  We talked about how cats like to chase mice.  We talked about different ways we could move our bodies to chase the mouse in our class (Teacher Heidi). We played a game where we sang a song about a kitty in his house and asked him how he would move to chase the mouse.  The song goes like this and it is to the tune of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star;  Kitty, Kitty in your house, how will you move to chase that mouse?  We all had a turn to choose how we all should move our bodies to chase the mouse.  We marched, stomped, twirled, jumped, hopped, galloped, wiggled, waved etc...  Playing this game helped us learn how to answer questions, use our words to describe actions, follow directions and move our bodies.
