							| 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.
 
 Elizabeth

							| I like starting a new class with "What a Wonderful World" and give them a word search with the key words from the song. |  29 Jun 2010

							| 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" |  29 Jun 2010

							| 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!
