Hello song

Students listen to a modelled version of the hello song and reproduce the song.

Lessons 1, 2 and 3 focus on engaging with the common words and phrases that make up the song. Phrases in the song may change from language to language.

You can increase the number of lessons in this sequence to match the number of individual words and phrases in the song if time permits.

Finally, students record themselves singing the hello song in [Language] and share it with the teacher.
