(YL) MOZART AT YOUR SERVICE

English as His Majesty among the languages often employs various servants to spread its word and gain even greater fame. This time, I suggest to hire Mozart to that end!

How to benefit from Mozart? Use his "Turkish March" to teach/revise/practice vocabulary with your young learners.



Here is "the how":

Tell your pupils to get into pairs.
Explain them that some of them are going to turn into a pianist and some of them are going to turn into the piano.
One pupil lies down on a carpet and turns into a piano, the other sits beside him/her and turns into a pianist.
Play "Turkish March".
Every time you turn the volume down, you say a word. - If the word is (give them a category - e.g. an animal), they change roles; if it is a different word they continue "the concert".

Pupils really enjoy being Mozart and there are lots of giggles and fun.
