Song for Y6 leavers assembly

Does anyone out there know of a simple song (In French) suitable for a Y6 leavers assembly? Maybe one of you 'creative types' has written some words to a familiar tune that you would be willing to share?! I thought I'd ask before setting to and trying to write my own!!! Many thanks Corinne Continue

Here are a few more 1) Youtube user angelaying who has lots of traditional nursery rhymes with animations and subtitles. I especially liked J'ai perdu le do de ma clarinette.

Catherine Cheater Singing Rhymes

If anyone can use them I have been playing around with Apple Mac's Garageband to produce some music to the rhymes that she suggests for use in the primary classroom. They are loaded onto the music player of my main page and can be downloaded in mp3 format. My first stab at this so apologies for any poor quality! Continue

Dominique Dimey

I have already put some links to this singer on the site. I think she is a really good composer for children, she has a strong message to convey about children's rights, and her songs would fit well into any work schools might do on this theme. I am adding this song to the site "Enfants des Rues" as a strong example of what she does. The mp3 was downloaded for free from We7.com. Listen to these songs on my page ENFANTS DES RUES : Dans… Continue

Last week we set up an impromptu recording studio at the Sandhill Centre and recorded 25 French songs, some traditional, some not so traditional. I'm so glad I found out about her the week before their contract ended and not the week after ! You'll find all the songs in mp3 format here http… Continue

ConjugationsBack

I'm sure by now many of you have already seen these videos but they are so inspired and fun that I can't resist sharing them once more. I'm not advocating teaching conjugations as such in PLL, but I do think a fun song like this makes the whole thing seem more 'normal' and makes g… Continue
