School start song
 
Dear eslprintables friends,

I �ve been looking for a while for a song I can use with my 6th graders on the first school day. But so far I �ve been unlucky.

Could you suggest me some songs I can use with my ss? The theme could be about end of summer, school start, motivational or what ever you can recomend.

Thanks a lot in advance.

I like starting a new class with "What a Wonderful World" and give them a word search with the key words from the song.

I also used �what a wonderful world � last year. I used it for my 5th graders so the exercises might be a bit too simple. One of the exercises worked really well for a first class though...the song has a line saying "I see friends shaking hands" so one of the assignments is �to shake hands with a classmate"

Hello!

How about Green Day �s Wake Me Up When September Ends.

�Summer has come and passed... �

For the lyrics and song meaning check out:

We �ve just set up a site with lots of song based lesson plans. They �re intended for teachers of English as a foreign language, but the higher level ones could be used  for high school students too.

Hope your new class goes well!
