Learning about The Beatles

My classes have 30 to 32 students so I decided to select 16 Beatles songs and pair my students to each song.

Little Flap Learns To Fly
I don�t know how many teachers/schools use the McGraw-Hill Wonders Series but I thought I would submit these supplemental materials (which can stand on their own).

Three Sheep Songs
Easter season is a good time to teach these three nursery rhymes: Baa Baa Black Sheep, Little Bo Peep, and Mary Had a Little Lamb. There are lots of videos of these songs on Youtube or Youkou (China) and the kids love to sing them. I used this worksheet as a summary review close activity. Good vocabulary building and verb tense practice.
