Hello Noelia!
ReplyDeleteI like this activity.
What I liked most is to put paragraphs in different colors to differentiate the parts of the song. Besides this way is much more acttractive. I have two questions. The activity works a particular topic? or simply a song to work listening and writing? Thank you and congratulations on the blog.
Hello Ixa!!!
ReplyDeleteIt´s easy... Both!!! I want the students to learn the topic about jobs, and the improve their lisrtening and writing skills. I thought it could be a tasks for mixing them.
Hello Noelia,
ReplyDeleteWhen I first saw your blog I really liked the colors and I immediately felt like reading it.
The song is not complicated to listen to and I think children will like it. I was just wondering if students are supposed to know the names of the jobs before listening to the song or they haver to wait till the end to see the spelling?
Congratulations, it's very nice!
Paula
Hi Paula!! Some of the names of jobs are known for the children, but, others no. If we use this video in class you can explain the jobs that they don´t know, and wacht the video afterwards. It depends on the teacher!!! ;)
