Songs and Rhymes - Junior English Timesavers S.

Synopsis

"Songs and Rhymes" is a comprehensive collection of 20 well-known songs and rhymes in English for pre-school and primary learners with lively teaching ideas and photocopiable words, worksheets and exercises. Some of the songs, such as "One Finger, One Thumb" and "If You're Happy and You Know It" are traditional; others, such as the Beatles' hit "Hello Goodbye" are more contemporary. They have been chosen for their simplicity, repetition, familiarity and also the opportunities for exploitation in action games an follow-up activities. In addition there is a photocopiable section in which pupils can record details and observations about the songs, including their own responses and feelings. The book is accompanied by a CD so that children can learn the songs easily and sing along with them. Learning a language is never quite so painfree as when one sings, and the words and phrases memorized in this way stay with us forever.
