Ram Sam Sam (Instruments)

A movement song, a finger play song... a song rich with so many opportunities!

FOCUS AREAS: [reflexes] [crossing the midline] [coordination] [active listening] [low energy] [inhibitory control]

Source: Traditional Moroccan Folk Song

One song, many ways:

• What other ways can you use tapping sticks to create three different movements? Eg rolling forwards and backwards, tapping them lengthways, tapping them on their edges.
• Ask the children how else they can make sounds with the instruments.

Lyrics:

A ram sam sam, a ram sam sam

Guli guli guli guli guli ram sam sam

A rafi, a rafi
Guli guli guli guli guli ram sam sam
