| 'Ready
to Fly'takes
traditional songs from around the English-speaking world and
explores the stories, histories, myths and competing legends
that surround their creation and enduring popularity. In addition,
original songs in established styles have been created on enduring
themes in the English classroom: child-parent relations, love,
loneliness, friendship, exile, injustice, protest and the sheer
love of a rousing tune. Resourceful teachers will soon discover
that these are more than 'time fillers' for a sluggish day in
the classroom. The material covering the 16 songs in this collection
allows teachers and students to choose from a wide variety of
tasks targeting the four language skills. Includes traditional,
folk, rock, pop, reggae and rap. |
