I wrote all of the words to the song on the blackboard. I had to improvise a little with Junior Primary and use pictures (where many of the children don't read yet) but for the Senior Primary, we ran through the song a couple times until they felt comfortable with it. I would then have a child come up and roll the dice. Whatever number they landed on, we had to erase a word (so if they landed on a 5, we would erase every 5th word). This worked so well and the kids didn't seem to tire of it. By the time we'd rolled the dice several times and had the words erased, the kids had it mastered. Very easy activity and yet so effective.
