Repetitive Predictable Spanish Songs for Early Learning

Activity: For each academic theme(appoximately every two weeks), students will learn a new song which will be recorded, illustrated, and sent home for practice/fun language learning. Songs will be repetitive in nature so that students disabilities (Ex: Developmental Apraxia of Speech, Down's Syndrome, Memory Delays, Language Expression/Comprehension Delays, and Auditory Processing Delays, and etc.) will be able to sing along to some or all of each song. Pauses will also be used so that students have think time in order to verbally participate in song. For example, when singing "The Wheels on the Bus", there would be a pause after "The Wheels on the Bus" go ........waiting for student responses. Students will be able to pose and be photographed/videoed for actions within the songs. When students and their classmates take part, the verbalizations tend to increase as well as their memory. Then bi-weekly website posting will be made so that parents can watch/download our songs from the internet.
