And we're going to continue counting to number 20 and keep on practicing. Are you ready to count? Okay, so this time when we count, I'm gonna do something a little special. We're going to count slow the first time. I want us to count, and every time we say a number, then we're going to clap two times. So just like this. One, two, three, four, five, six. Just like that. Can you give it a try? Clap two times. Again. You did it. Okay, so we're going to say the number and clap two times. I can't clap while I hold the pointer, so I'm going to tap two times like this. You clap, and I will. Okay, let's give it a try. Get ready, get ready. Here we go. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20. We did it! Wonderful job, you did it. You counted from one all the way to 20, and you added in the clap. Good job. Now let's try and count again one more time, but this time we're going to go faster. So we'll count like this. One, two, three. We're only clapping one time. Can you try it? Let's try it. Let's count to five doing that. Ready? One, two, three, four, five, just like that. Now remember, I'm going to hold the pointer so I cannot clap. I'm going to tap. You clap. Let's give it a try. Here we go, my friends. Get ready, get ready. Here we go. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20. You did it again. Oh, my friends, great counting.

Let's go together. Okay, my friends, today's circle time song is the name song. You have to listen for the first letter in your name, in your first name. My name is Monica. The first letter in my name is M, so I'm going to listen for letter M, and when I hear it, I clap, clap. You listen for the first letter in your name. Do you know the first letter in your name? Ooh, and if you don't know, that's okay. You can ask someone for help. Okay, get ready, my friends. Get ready, get ready. Here we go. I'm going to ring my bells.
