Songs and rhymes are like a chocolate candy bar in an English lesson. They are sweet, delicious and bring happiness. The use of songs and rhymes in an English lesson is highly effective for many reasons. I want to share my thoughts about the unique feature of Language Clubhouse’s songs and rhymes from their English as a second language program.
Songs and rhymes involve actions and help the physical development of the kids.
They are truly social acts and help children develop their social skills and get an enormous amount of pleasure working in a group.
Songs and rhymes build confidence in children and even shy kids will enjoy singing and acting out a song as part of a group. Songs develop a new sense of identity in young learners.
They provide opportunities for kids to have meaningful exposure to the English language and reinforce their language learning and communication.
Children learn not only the words but also the phrases when they are repeating them over and over and a great source of teaching grammar to kids
Hearing sounds, syllables and rhyming words help children understand how language works and make predictions.
Language Clubhouse songs and rhymes are unique and have successfully addressed all the above features.
