Shama Lama Ding Dong

$4.00

Doo Wop is a silly word that was made up to describe a musical style where singers use their voices as instruments. Doo wop musicians used words to speak in slang when they're hanging out with their friends, and sometimes the words are sounds in their songs. This lesson is great for young students to sound out words, vowel blends, and practice phonics. Bonus activity: have groups of students collaborate on creating a doo wop group with a name, songs, and matching outfits.
