    My students especially loved the circle game! Great lesson to get the students engaged and participating in order to introduce form.

    There is a typo on the lyrics page. It says “famer” instead of “farmer”. Not a big deal though 🙂

      **I fixed the typo and updated all the graphics and layout within the entire resource. Please go to “my purchases” to download the updates for free 🙂

      Thank you for the feedback and for letting me know about the typo. I’ll get to work on editing and updating this file right away. I’ll return and edit this message to let you know when the updates are finished 🙂
