🦖 Little Stars Plus 15: I Can Do It!
A story lesson in the Body Moves unit of Little Stars Plus, a Pre-A1 English course for children aged 4 to 6. In the original story “I Can Do It!”, six animal friends each show one move: the frog jumps, the crab claps, the little dinosaur stomps, the owl turns around, the octopus waves its hands and the snail stretches up slowly. After every move Pip says “Your turn!”, and the children do the move with their whole body and call the refrain “I can do it!”. Then the children take turns to lead the moves, and a slow snail story brings the class back to calm before the Goodbye Song. Every scene is a picture and a voice — tap it to hear it in British English. With teacher tips, seated alternatives, ideas for online lessons, a 30-minute version and a Star Check picture game for home.
