IMPLEMENTATION

The teacher will decide if the activity will repeat through the whole class or part of the class and say that ahead of time so the students
know. 
TTW call the students to sit in a circle.
TTW say, "Okay class, we are going to play Bippity Boppity Bumble Bee, we will be playing this throughtout the year, so it will get easier
and make more sense as time goes on".
TTW explain the instructions: I will start the chant and ya'll repeat after me. We are working on breaking up our names and other words
into syllables. (By this point, the students should already have an idea of what syllables are).
Sequence of
TTW start the chant and hand the bee to a student: "Bibbity Boppity Bumble Bee, Will You Say Your Name For Me?"
Activities
TSW will answer with their name.
TTW say "Let's all say it and clap the syllables"
TSW repeat the name out loud while clapping the syllables in the name. 
TTW say, "Let's all whisper it"
TSW whisper the name while also clapping the syllables.
TTW say, "Bippity Boppity Bumble Bee, Thank you for saying your name for me"
TTW and TSW will repeat this with other students, moving through the whole class or only part of the class. 

Grouping Strategies

The students can have time before hand to break up their name into syllables. They will be able to know their own name so that they are
Differentiated not put on the spot during the game. 
Instruction The teacher can make a script for students in the class who speak another language.
The teacher will scaffold with sentence strips for ELL students. 

Comments

REFLECTIONS

Prior to Lesson Students should have already began discussing syllables and have an understanding of what the word means.

Post­Lesson The teacher can do this same lesson but with different words and maybe even phrases.
