<h3>The Bear Went Over the Mountain</h3><p>The words are easy to remember and the tune is memorable but it's always best to teach a line at a time to be sure that the tune is learned correctly. Once the song is known it's a good one to use for clapping in time and then marching in time.</p>

Many children find it difficult to walk in time with words and music but it helps if you learn the chant first, then take it literally one step at a time. Try standing in a line with the children or standing in front of them, all facing the same way. </p>                                                                <ul class="simple lyrics">            <li>Fuzzy Wuzzy wuz a bear</li>            <li>A bear wuz Fuzzy Wuzzy</li>            <li>When Fuzzy Wuzzy lost his hair</li>            <li>He wuzn&#039;t fuzzy, wuz he?</li>    </ul>
