Who wrote the book of love - reading

I used this song to introduce the idea of reading. There are also some useful vocabulary embedded in the song!





Apart from the course, the lines are mixed up - the first line in each part is correct.

used to - Daughtry

Another song I found with lots of examples of 'used to' embedded.





The verbs after  used to have been removed and put in a separate list. Students can either predict and listen or listen and fill the gaps. There are also some nice verb phrases in here if you wanted to teach them :)

Used to for past habits and states

One of my new students told be about this song which she sings when walking up the stairs - unfortunately it is very hard to find clean copies on youtube due to licensing so this is from another site. I have not seen it before but avast tells me it is safe





The verses and adlibs are mixed up in this one.

Present Simple & Continuous - Say a little prayer

I used this song with my lower level group to review present simple and continuous tenses together. They show how they are used with words like while and now.





Enjoy - see if the students get carried away too!

Superlatives - I'm the coolest - Alice Cooper

I was looking for a song with superlatives in and found this one. The worksheet has extra words which the students need to remove. The song is quite slow so hopefully not too many problems for them.
