Programme 3: The Raja with Big Ears

Activities

Before the programme

  • Play a game of Chinese whispers. Has the message changed by the time it reaches the last person?
  • Talk about echoes. Some children might have heard echoed sounds under a bridge or in a cave.

After the programme

  • Play the echo game. The leader plays the phrase loudly and the rest of the class have to play it back quietly three times. Try this game with words and phrases, body percussion and classroom instruments.
