Maybe now you would like to pause the video and think of a different way that you can use your feet on your journey.

We made it just in time for the bus and the good news is today's bus driver is Rodney.

Rodney loves to rap.

Would you like to hear Rodney's rap? This is how it goes.

Ready, steady, off I go.

♪ I am a bus driver.

♪ ♪ I love to ride my bus, but there is too much traffic.

♪ ♪ I'm getting in a fuss.

♪ ♪ The traffic is noisy.

♪ ♪ No one hears me speak.

♪ ♪ So all I've got to do is just beep beep beep! ♪ ♪ Beep, beep, beep.

♪ ♪ Beep, beep, beep! ♪ ♪ So all I've got to do is just beep beep beep.

♪ That was really good tapping in time to the heartbeat of the rap.

Would you like to do some rapping with Rodney? Okay, this time I'll tell you just a little chunk and you can copy back.

My turn, then your turn.

♪ Ready off I go.

♪ ♪ I am a bus driver.

Now Rodney the rapper, Rodney the rapping bus driver sometimes likes to make his horn beep in a different rhythm.

Sometimes he doesn't go beep, beep, beep.

Sometimes he goes, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.

Can you think of a different rhythm to blow your horn? You want to give it a try? Ready, steady, off you go.

Really good, would you like to hear my version? Okay, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.

Can you copy? Teddy, would you like to go? Teddy's going to tap it on the drum, because you know, Teddy can't really speak very loudly.

You ready, Teddy? Oh, what a little stick.

Little beater.

Ready? Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep.

Well done Teddy! Let's try one more time, and you can do a different beeping rhythm at the end.

All the ways through together, off we go.

♪ I am a bus driver, I love to ride my bus.

If you liked the rap, but you found it a little bit tricky to learn.

Why don't you pause the video and rewind to learn the words.

You'll see that I used some actions the last time that might help you learn the words and we'll sing it again another time together.

Right then, it's time to go on our bus journey.

Rodney the rapping bus driver, is going to take us on a wonderful adventure all around the capital of England.

Does anybody know what the capital city of England is called? That's right, it's called London, and Rodney is a Londoner and he knows everything about all the different historical parts of London.

We're going to listen to a piece of music now and I would like you to use your imagination.

Can you make believe that you're seeing lots of different things all around London.

Maybe you can see people.

Maybe you can see buildings or maybe you can see parks.

Are you ready to listen? Let's close our eyes in five, four, three, two, one.

Did you enjoy that? How does the music make you feel? What was the weather like? Were there lots of people around on the streets of London or was it quiet? What do you think, Teddy? We're going to listen again, Teddy and I.

We're going to close our eyes and we're just going to move around a little bit in our seats on the bus and just move to how we think the music makes us feel.

Would you like to do the same? Okay, let's close our eyes again.

Five, four, three, two, one.

Did you see us popping up and down on the bus? I think it was a very bumpy road.

Wasn't it, Teddy? We're going to listen to another part now and I want you to listen very carefully, because there's going to be an instrument playing, and the instrument is big and shiny and it goes.

Which means we must be at a special place with people who march and play instruments.

Where do you think we are? Did you hear that? I think we must be at Buckingham palace where the queen lives.

Because I heard lots of people marching and people playing trumpets.

Did you hear it too? Maybe you thought we were somewhere different.

Where did you think we were? Well, my friends, that was a really fun journey on a bus.

If you want, you can pause the video and go back and listen to the music again and use your imagination to think of some other things that you saw on your London bus journey.

Have fun with your make believe Well what a fun adventure we've had today, friends.

Can you remember what we did first of all? That's right we got ready for our journey.

And then we jumped on the bus and played the bus beat game with Rodney, the rapping bus driver.

Finally, Rodney drove us all around London on an imaginary bus tour.

What did you think of when we were on our bus journey? if you've had fun today, why don't you send a picture or a video or something that you've done to some of your family, your friends, maybe your teacher at school.

And if there's an adult in your house, who would like to share your wonderful musical learning on Instagram or Facebook or Twitter.

They can tag that at Oak National or use the hashtag Learn with Oak.

Well it's nearly the end.

Thank you so much for using your imagination today.

It was really fun making belief with you.

Get your hands ready.

I'm going to wave goodbye.
