The repetative nature of songs and rhymes help students learn
vocabulary and the rhythm of language.
Students hear a word in a melody
and all of a sudden a whole verse is triggered in the same way you
remember songs. These songs are grammatically based so students
are also subconsciously learning grammatical structures of
English.
It has beeen claimed that
listening comprehension of songs requires the activation of both
left and right hemispheres of the brain. This may well
activate long term memory in vocabulary
development.
Phonetic sounds are able to be
subconsciously processed to teach natural pronunciation efficiently
and students can have fun.
Technology enables
the choice of how to use these songs. Use
teacher directed classroom learning with central speakers (e.g. phone,mp3 app & boombox) or
computer based individual student learning. With a school licence, students can
use the songs for independent language learning in a computer centre or
language lab.
Have fun with them. They have fun lyrics.
