PRACTICE THE SONG

Hello¡
Remember the song we were singing today in class? 
You can find the THE TREE SONG in your CD  (number 19)


The tree is the ground 
And the green grass grows
All around, all around
The green grass grows all around¡


The branch is on the tree
The tree is in the ground
And the green grass grows...


The nest is on the branch...
The egg is in the nest...
The bird is in the egg...

SONGS

Using aunthentic songs in the EFL class is one of the best ways of teaching a foreign language. The atmosphere is more relaxed when listening to a song. Students are highly motivated and their attitude is usually positive. As a consequence, they will get involved more easily.
Authentic songs can help the students develop the four skills (reading, writing, listening and speaking) and they are a good example of the language in use. 
Whether to practise or revise language content(grammatical or comprenhension, to present a topic or language content, to stimulate speaking through discussions, or to encourage creativity, the most important thing is to find the appropriate song that will suit your purposes.
