Reasons to Incorporate music into the WL classroom
❖ Music is a universal element of culture, so you are naturally learning
cultural topics. It’s a great starting point to learn about cultural issues.
There are an infinite number of songs that discuss culturally relevant
topics, such as customs, history, human relations, humor, as well as
regional and cultural differences. Songs teach language and culture
simultaneously.
❖ The benefits of using music as a tool for second language acquisition
are extensive. Firstly, songs teach linguistic elements--vocabulary,
grammar and syntax. Students’ vocabulary becomes more extensive
and their understanding of accents and tones is
strengthened, leading to better pronunciation.Research in second language
acquisition has shown that the
introduction of L2 songs in the world
language classroom aids in the retention
of vocabulary, because it produces an
involuntary mental repetition that
stimulates language
acquisition.Some examples of song activities: un homme debout karaoke 1. Zaz: “Sous le Ciel de Paris”: zaz sous le ciel de paris sous le ciel de paris karoake 2. Zaz: “Je veux” zaz je veux je veux karaoke 3. Claude Capéo: “Un Homme Debout” capéo un homme debout un homme debout karaoke
