NURSERY RHYMES, SINGING IN THE CLASSROOM

Dar clase de música en inglés en infantil y en el primer ciclo de primaria muchas veces es un problema. No siempre es fácil adecuar el nivel de inglés a niños tan pequeños y mantener su atención cuando el idioma empleado no es su primera lengua no es sencillo.

Un recurso muy útil y divertido es el uso de nursery rhymes o canciones infantiles, siempre que se pueda mejor con letra (lyrics). Muchas veces Youtube nos da la oportunidad de activar los subtitulos.

Aquì os dejo algunos de los mejores videos que se pueden encontrar en Youtube:

• Most popular nursery rhymes

•  The animals on the farm

• 1,2,3,4,5 once I caught a fish alive

Students can also learn or review the parts of the body.

Little snowflake falling from the sky.

Snowflake, snowflake, little snowflake.

Falling, falling, falling, falling, falling,

falling, falling, falling, falling...falling on my head.

Snowflake, snowflake, little snowflake.

Little snowflake falling from the sky.

Snowflake, snowflake, little snowflake.

Falling, falling, falling, falling, falling,

falling, falling, falling, falling...falling on my nose.

Snowflake, snowflake, little snowflake.

Little snowflake falling from the sky.

Snowflake, snowflake, little snowflake.

Falling, falling, falling, falling, falling,

falling, falling, falling, falling...falling in my hand.

Falling on my head.

Falling on my nose.

Falling in my hand.

Snowflake, snowflake, little snowflake...
