Xabier, thank you for this post. I ove this song, it´s really funny and "makes me feel happy", indeed.
ReplyDeleteBut I have some problems to understand some words and fill in all the gaps. Please, could you provide us the solution?
Thank you!
Hi there,
ReplyDeleteI know it’s difficult to understand the lyrics, especially for the children. I see this task more like a reward than a task to assess. Anyway, here you have the solutions:
I’m about to say
room without a roof
happiness is the truth
happiness is to you
you want to do
waste your time
Thanks for your comment,
Xabi.
Dear Xabier,
ReplyDeleteI really love your blog! It is very appeal for children with the colours and the posts. I like the activities that you have created, because they attract the children’s attention. The ones that I like most are those about musical instruments, geography and adverbs of frequency. The activity about the song is really good. With my students I have tried another version of this activity: in the same stanza I mix the verses in a random order and then they have to put the numbers at the beginning indicating the right order.
Xabier, congratulations, keep doing like this!
Anna.
