S-A-N-T-A: an interactive holiday song

Created by

Mrs Breyne

This Smartboard song borrows it's tune from the classic song "B-I-N-G-O." Students will sing "there was a man who had a sack and Santa was his name-o." As they touch the letters in Santa's name, the boxes will fade to show hands clapping in their place. Remove one box with each repitition of the song until you are clapping Santa's whole name. Students have fun watching the letters disappear and it is an easy holiday song to teach little ones!
