Introduction

The goal of this song book is to help children enjoy themselves while learning English as a second language. Each song is re-lated to different topics we cover throughout the school year. It’s an amazing tool that contains diverse songs and encour-ages students to sing along as they act out. As a result, they learn new vocabulary and are able to spontaneously express themselves.

CHORUS:In a land far away,

Many kinds of animals stay.See them run,

See them pass,See them living on the grass.

See the ZEBRA, black and white,It is eating grass, all right.

A KANGAROO goes hop, hop,hop.Oh, when will it ever stop?
