Language focus: "Hello" "Can you...?"

Classroom benefits: The Classroom Version of Hello Hello allows teachers to continuously update the song by adding new actions as they are introduced in class or at home. You can consider it a karaoke version of Hello Hello and sing all of the original lyrics ("Can you clap your hands/stamp your feet/stretch up high/touch your toes/turn around"), or you can insert some new lyrics. Inserting new lyrics is a great way to test your students' comprehension. For example, if you sing, "Can you brush your teeth?", and the students respond with a brushing teeth gesture, you can see the level of their comprehension.
