Teaching Language with Songs


Here is a perfect example of teaching new vocabulary with a song. Unlike many children's songs, the songs from Super Simple Songs are created specifically to teach children new vocabulary--they were created for young second language learners. They are really simple enough in language structure and sung slowly enough that children with autism are more able to hear the words and repetitive enough that children with autism are more likely to learn the words.
