Clam Yell

Hold hand up with the thumb on the bottom, and the palm and four fingers above. The "yell", silent of course, is done by rapidly "clapping" the thumb against the four fingers.

Painters' Convention Clapping

Paintbrush is the hand with the fingers hanging down loosely. The clapping is done by "brushing" the palm of the other hand.

Mosquito Yell

All in unison make a "z ... z ... z ... z ... z" sound. Then following the leader, make a gulping sound, "glk", followed by shouting, "Ouch", followed by a clap while yelling, "Got it".
