!Vamos a Cantar! book and CD set contains 20 easy-to-learn Spanish songs written specifically to help primary school children to learn Spanish. They are linked to the QCA schemes of work for modern foreign languages at Key Stage 2 but are also relevant for pupils in Years 7 and 8, especially those with special needs. The songs introduce and reinforce key vocabulary, such as: greetings; names and ages; time and days of the week; family and pets; food and drink; classroom items and instructions; weather, months and seasons; and countries where Spanish is spoken. CD 1 contains all 20 songs sung by Spanish children. CD 2 contains instrumental tracks for the songs. The songs in this book are designed for 7-13 year olds. If you are a KS3 (Years 7-9; 11-14 year olds) teacher you may wish to order the KS3 version of this book (9780857476531). It contains the same songs.

 

This book is suitable for Key Stage 2. KS2 covers school years 4, 5 and 6, and ages 8-11 years. A key stage is any of the fixed stages into which the national curriculum is divided, each having its own prescribed course of study.
