Using songs in the EFL/ESL classroom - #ELTchat summary 12/01/2011 | #ELTchat - 4 views

  • Anyone ever encountered strong student resistence to songs in class?
  • What do you think are the QUALITIES of a good song to use in the classroom? What do you consider when choosing songs?
  • Does anyone have any ‘story songs’ to suggest (i.e. songs with stories in them)? – they are usually great to use in class
  • We believe that slow songs can help students learn intonation, elision etc., but does it really?
  • I guess the very first thing is defining why you’re playing a song in class. Is it just for fun or is there a clear learning goal?
  • Any of your students think they are “bad” in English because they don’t understand the lyrics of songs in English?
  • Any success with songs from musicals?
  • Instrumental music can be a gr8 way to frame a guided visualisation. How else do you use music without words?
  • Anyone done any football songs in class?
