Brief Outline: When the music stops, students stop dancing and greet each other using self-introduction phrases.

Detailed Explanation:

1. Once the target vocab is learned, play the music and dance with the students. 
2. When the music stops, students form pairs and practice saying their self-introductions.

Variations:

• Use a timer to encourage students to finish within a certain time, but stress clear pronunciation. Challenge the students by keep reducing the time.

Teaching Suggestions:

• Choose your music wisely!  Your music selection can make or break the game. Choose music that either has a strong consistent pounding beat, or teach them an easy English song ahead of time, like the Beatles Hello Goodbye, and homemade choreography to supplement the song. This should solve the problem of shy students not wanting to dance.

  It's a better hit with the younger grades, but can be used for grade 4, 5 and 6 if you sell it right.

概要：音楽が止まった時に、生徒は踊りを止めて相手に自己紹介の表現方法を使って、挨拶をします。 

推薦を教えること：

• タイマーを使って生徒が限られた時間までに、自己紹介をし終わるようにします。ただし、生徒は英語をはっきり発音することを強調します。　自己紹介の時間をどんどん少なくしていけば、生徒にはいいチャレンジとなるでしょう。
