Learning a song: I hear thunder (x2) Hark, don’t you? (x2) Pitter patter raindrops (x2) I’m wet through (x1) So are you (x1)

You have to sing the song at di³erent stages, e.g. you sing the ±rst line and when you start with the second line, your facilitator starts with the ±rst line, etc.

Use percussion instruments to make it more interesting.

Think of other songs that you can sing like this, such as “Three blind mice”.

What to do: - Put a piece of white cotton on the Âśoor.

- Draw a picture or diÂłerent patterns on it with a pencil.

- Dip a paintbrush in cooked maize meal and paint over the pencil lines.

- Let it dry.

- Use a thicker paintbrush to paint with colour between the maize meal lines.

- Let it dry.

- Ask your facilitator to iron the cotton for 10 minutes on each side. (It prevents the colour from being washed out.)

- Wash the cotton thoroughly.

- The maize meal will wash out and leave white markings where it was painted on the cotton.
