On the LearnEnglish Kids website you can find many traditional songs for use in the primary classroom. Children love songs, particularly the traditional variety which are easy to learn, fun to repeat and provide a way in to the target culture. The traditional songs on the LearnEnglish website range from very simple short songs such as ‘Twinkle, twinkle little star’ to longer songs which tell a story. On this page you will find some ideas for using and exploiting the traditional songs available on the website. Go to http://www.britishcouncil.org/kids-songs-traditional.htm
