Deep and Wide!
Deep and wide,
Deep and wide,
There's a fountain flowing deep and wide.
Deep and wide,
Deep and wide,
There's a fountain flowing deep and wide.
Actions:Deep: one hand above the other, palms facing each other (with space between them)
Wide: both hands out and level, palms facing each other (with space between them)
Fountain: hands come close together and raise up and out like a fountain
Flowing: arms/hands move together like a flowing river
Sing the song all the way through, including the associated action with the word. Every time you sing the song again, a word will be eliminated completely (no humming), and the action will remain. For example, in the second round you could eliminate the word "deep" and participants will only sign the word. Every time you sing the song again, eliminate another word until the song is completely silent, and participants are only acting out the words.
Tips: use repetition and do not give hand-outs of the songs (eye contact is worth so much more!) Here is a link to a few other tips on leading songs (scroll down a little and look for the title: Leading Songs).
Please Comment Below: How did these songs work for y'all?
