Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes Action Rhyme with Extension

(0)
A fun way to introduce body parts including colour symbols and a complete lesson plan with 3 activities. This resource is designed to support EYFS, KS1, and SEND teachers in engaging young children with body awareness and language development through the familiar and interactive rhyme “Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes.” It incorporates a multi-sensory approach, using music, movement, and colour symbols to make learning about body parts fun and accessible. The activities are structured to gradually introduce new vocabulary and body parts, allowing children to first master basic terms and then expand their knowledge in a supportive environment. By creating a class verse and encouraging active participation, the resource enhances listening skills, coordination, and language development, making it an effective tool for diverse learning needs and abilities.
