Una “Let’s Get Together” Song

 "Let's Play!"

"Let's Play" is a sweet tune to help you build your classroom community and reinforce Social Emotional Learning objectives. Below you can find the lyric video featuring cute animals along with links to the song on various streaming services.

 
Play the video or recording for students to sing along at the beginning of music time or before a group activity (such as a parachute activity).
 
Bandcamp (preferred if you'd like to download it)
 
 
Suggestions for Classroom Use
  • Play video or song to transition to recess / playtime
  • Party and celebration music
  • Literacy + Music Arts Integration lessons
  • Circle “greeting” game (2nd-4th grade) to encourage socialization: 

Two circles of students facing each other. During the chorus, they walk in opposite directions to the steady beat.  When the verse begins, they stop and sing to the student they are facing.  After the second verse, they can incorporate a clapping pattern or movements of your choosing during the instrumental break.  After the final chorus, they get to high five the person they are facing at the end of the song.

 
Did you try it with your class?  Let us know how it went!
