| Title | Spanish Jazz Chant: Lunch |
| Body | I had posted a Spanish breakfast food jazz chant and received positive feedback from many of you. I can only take credit for SHARING that chant, as my mentor had created the lyrics for it. However, since then, I made up my own jazz chant for eating lunch in a restaurant (it was part of a unit we were working on). My students had a lot of fun with it, and I hope some of you may find it useful too! I wrote it out on chart paper so the students could follow along and included color photos of some of the items in the chant (the different foods, check, hot soup, etc.) for my visual learners. Jazz Chant: Restaurant Lunch (with accompanying gestures) Por la tarde al almuerzo Yo tengo hambre (hold stomach). Yo tengo sed (hold throat). El menú por favor (open imaginary menu in hands). Vamos a comer (gesture eating with hand to mouth). Sopa por favor (stir imaginary soup). Sopa de tomate (take a bite of the soup). Qué caliente (gesture soup's too hot with hand)! Un sandwich por favor (both hands holding imaginary sandwich). No me gusta pollo (flap chicken wings!). No me gusta jamón (gesture cutting meat with fork and knife). El queso sí me gusta (point one finger up in the air to emphasize sí). De queso por favor. Ay qué rico! (rub stomach) La cuenta por favor (make universal restaurant check symbol with hand). No tengo dinero (show empty pockets). Voy a lavar los platos (gesture washing imaginary dishes). Qué lástima (gesture too bad)! Meisel, E. Spanish jazz chant - restaurant lunch.
