What is your favourite time of day? When is music time? (e.g., one
o’clock, two o’clock, three o’clock, four o’clock…)
Sing the song with the text; ask students what they notice about how
the song goes (e.g., like a question and answer/call and response).
Teacher sings the question/call in the song, and the class sings the
responses. Switch roles.
Half the class sings the question/call and the other half of the class
sings the responses. Switch roles.
