Call-and-response chant
Food: a chant for class
Teacher calls the violet lines, the class shouts the green ones. Press play to hear the pacing, then own it without the screen.
Teacher lines are violet, class lines are green — or press play and echo the site.
Chant it three times: whispering, normal, ROARING. The third time is the one they remember.
