The importance of combining music with language acquisition and chunking words altogether as a whole.

Carmit Shani - Principal of Amirim School Ashdod

Here are some examples from her classes.

ABC's song

Look around the room

Look and you can see

So many things you can show me.

Show me the window

Show me the door

Show me the ceiling

Show me the floor

Show me the teacher

Show me the wall

Show me the girls

And show me the boys


Open shut them x2

Give a little clap

Open shut them x 2

Put them in your lap

Walk them x4

To your little chin

Walk them to your big great mouth

But do not put them in


Hello hello

Say yes say no

Sit down stand up

And turn around

Jump to the left

Jump to the right

Let's love x 2

And let's not fight



Repeat after me

Oh a milkshake

A sticky sticky waffle

A mozzarella pizza

All the eggs all the eggs are broken

That was really nothing

We can do it British

We can do it quite

We can do it louder

We are really awesome


It's our time

Are you ready to learn

Turn your big brain on

And get ready for college

Take a seat

Take a load off your feet



Walk into the class

and I know my teacher gets me

'Thinking caps' on

and you know I'm learning quickly

Hey hey

Ok ok let's get ready to learn

Its gonna be a good day×4

Now slide, drop

Learning is all with what I've got

Hey

We're sharks

Everyone's on their feet ×4

Now do your dance× 4

Hey

You're smart!

You're your teacher's pet.
