21 Fun Songs to Teach French Phonics  (Book and USB): Sing and Dance your Way to Perfect Pronunciation

Overview

Each of the songs in 21 Fun Songs to Teach French Phonics is based on a different phoneme from the French language. This allows you to provide a specific phonic focus for your lesson. However, the lyrics have also been written with the primary MFL curriculum in mind, and so you will find a wealth of age-appropriate, frequently used vocabulary and phrases.

This will allow you to integrate the songs into any scheme of work or topic, as well as to focus on French phonics. The songs can be used throughout key stages 1 and 2, and many would be appropriate for revision in Key Stage 3.

Each song has a lyrics page, which doubles up as a colouring sheet, a worksheet and two audio tracks: one with vocals and one instrumental. The teaching notes offer some additional ideas on how to exploit the songs and possible extension work in the classroom and beyond.

To make teaching the songs even easier, there are videos for each of the songs to get your pupils up on their feet, singing and dancing to the tunes. The wall chart and frieze make reinforcing phonic sounds on a regular basis easy.

We are confident that you and your pupils will enjoy singing, dancing and moving to these catchy French songs. We hope that you will also see the benefits in their oral, writing, listening and reading skills and, above all, in their confidence and motivation to communicate in French.

She then moved to Paris where she worked for five years, before carrying out her PGCE in Modern Foreign Languages at the University of Exeter. After obtaining her PGCE, she worked for five years as a secondary teacher of French and Spanish, before taking a break to have children. After her second child was born, she set up her own business teaching French to babies, toddlers and their parents and grandparents. <p></p> Teaching French through singing and dancing was a fantastic and transformative experience, and this led to Catherine's current role teaching French to nursery and primary school children, aged 2 - 11 years old. <p></p> Making the most of children's natural enjoyment and enthusiasm for singing and dancing, Catherine has been able to hone her craft and create songs, poems and raps that capture the children's imagination and embed French vocabulary, phonics and grammar into their long term memories. <p></p> Through the songs, gestures, videos and worksheets provided in this publication, Catherine hopes to pass on the flame of her passion and life-long love of learning languages. <p></p> <i>Laura Maddock</i> gains a BA Hons at Bretton Hall, University of Leeds. Her career started by touring in the UK providing workshops in rap and break dancing, before becoming a piano and vocal coach in New York. <p></p> Laura then travelled around the world with her guitar and campervan called Skippy ! During this time, she wrote songs and created a new technique for teaching music to pre-schoolers through story, dance and song. <p></p> After her travels Laura continued to train and work for the Technics Music Academy, Yamaha School of Music and Worcester Music Academy. Laura is now the Director of her own Music School in Worcester. <p></p> Laura's enthusiasm and love for playing music is infectious and her students have appeared on the TV, won awards at music festivals and together have raised thousands of pounds for local charities. <p></p> With Laura's International experiences of music, she was able to bring different arrangements and styles to this fun and Interactive French learning resource.
