Pass the Animals (pulse)
This game is also in the Early Years Pets and Other Animals unit, but it's worth doing again at KS1 because it's everybody's favourite, as you can see in the video. At KS1, I expect the children to learn to pass the animals in time with the pulse rather than just passing them on when they can 'bear' to part with them! You'll hear me explain this to the children and we start at a slow pace then build up the speed. Notice that the little girl sitting next to me is pretty good at passing in time right from the start. At the end, it all falls apart a bit but it's still good fun!
