This catchy song is another favourite in Class 1. It is perfect for practising food vocabulary and simple questions. My youngest pupils always enjoy it. This time, they made it their own by adding new foods and answers. 

They used playdough to make the food, which made the activity even more fun and creative.

Soon we had watermelons, lemons, spaghetti, muffins, cookie pizza, and lots of “Yes, I do!” and “No, I don’t! Yukky!” echoing around the classroom:

 

 

Tommy's in the Kitchen

This song is another favourite with my younger pupils. It’s great for revising food vocabulary in a fun way. The rhythm is easy and the funny food combinations always make the children laugh.

Tommy's in the kitchen,
Come and take him out!
Tommy's in the kitchen,
Come and take him out!

I've got an apple in my sandwich.
I've got milk on my peas.
I've got juice on my sausage.
Help! Oh, help me, please!

Tommy's in the kitchen,
Come and take him out!
Tommy's in the kitchen,
Come and take him out!

I've got carrots on my pizza.
And a banana on my cheese.
I've got chicken with my cake.
Help! Oh, help me, please!

Tommy's in the kitchen,
Come and take him out!
Tommy's in the kitchen,
Come and take him out!

HIPPO 2026

 This year, three groups of my pupils—12 in total—joined the preliminary round of the Hippo Contest. For some it was a familiar challenge, while for others it was their very first time. All agreed the tests felt easy, so we’re hopeful for good news in the weeks ahead. 

The local round took place on 22 March at Đura Jakšić Primary School.

Toy Shop

My Class 2 pupils had great fun chanting about toys. 

This lively chant is a wonderful way for them to practise toy vocabulary while enjoying rhythm and repetition.

Toy shop, toy shop,

Let's go to the toy shop.

Look!

A doll, a car, a bike, oh yes,

A go-kart and a train,

A ball, a computer game,

A monster and a plane.

Yes.

And there's a kite!

That's right!
