Title - cookie jar
By - Joe Brolly
Primary Subject - Music
Secondary Subjects -
Grade Level - 1/2
I learned this activity from a fellow colleague of mine and I thought that it was so good that I had to send it in to you, for everyone to share.

It is a music game that focuses on the rhythm and beat patterns. The song that is used is a very common song that most children will know, and if they don't it is a very catchy tune, which can be taught quite easily.

Who stole the cookie from the cookie jar? Is the song.

The words:

Who stole the cookie from the cookie jar?
(persons' name) stole the cookie from the cookie jar.
Who me? Yes you! Couldn't be! Then who...

Then it goes back to the second line. Etc

The students clap to the beat while singing the song. The point of the game is for the students not to miss a beat when they are singing the verse. If they do then they are considered out and go to the cookie jar, but still participate in the game.

I found that children love this game and always try to get to the end without being placed in the jar.
