I often use the phrases of the song to start the class, as a warm up, then play the song at the end as a review and wrap up. There are a lot of actions here for the kids to learn. I always show the kids the actions, and even if it takes them a time or two to say the phrases, they can do the action right away. This makes the kids have fun right from the start!

Lyrics: Goodbye Song

Clap your hands
Spin around
Jump up high
Ok!
Clap your hands
Sit down
Stand up
1,2,3,4

Goodbye, goodbye, see you again
Goodbye, goodbye, see you my friends
Goodbye, goodbye, I had fun today
I had fun today

Stomp your feet
Shake your body
Stand still
Ok!
Stomp your feet
Turn left
Turn right
1,2,3,4
Goodbye, goodbye, see you again
Goodbye, goodbye, see you my friends
Goodbye, goodbye, I had fun today
I had fun today, I had fun today
I had fun today
Goodbye!

For example, when the class starts I say, “stand up!” and do the action. The students follow my action, and I encourage them to say “stand up.” Next I do the same with “sit down”, and “clap your hands”. Even if this is the first lesson for the student, they have already learned some important phrases.
At the end of the class, before we sing the song, I have the students repeat the lyrics, line by line, after me. I use hand gestures to teach the meaning, but if they don’t understand I translate the lyrics for them. You could also use flash cards. I think it is very important that the students understand what they are singing.
When we sing the song, the students do the actions, and sing. I also use actions for the Goodbye, see you again part.
Goodbye, goodbye, see you again: Wave both hands left to right while singing goodbye. See (point to eyes) you (point at others) again (thumbs up!).
Goodbye, goodbye, see you my friends:
Again, wave both hands left to right while singing goodbye. See (point to eyes) you (point at others) my friends (hands across your chest like you are hugging yourself).
Goodbye, goodbye, I had fun today: Wave both hands left to right during the goodbye part. I had fun today (raise hands high in the air and move up and down as if in celebration).
