Ant Chant for insect unit
This is a short army type chant. It can be used to help kids remember important facts about ants. Very cute for a short little production for a talent show or awards assembly. It was written with The Ants Go Marching tune in mind, but is to be done as a cool chant. I have done this with 1st-3rd grade. We always march out to the baby version of the song and then put on sunglasses for the actual performance. The kids love it!
