"Music Bingo: Discover the Secret Words of the 'This is Me' song"
Hi guys!
Welcome to an exciting listening exercise that will test your listening skills and your ability to recognise key words in songs! In this activity, we will explore the wonderful world of music through a fun and challenging bingo card.
Imagine for a moment that you are in an amazing show, where songs come to life and transport us to a universe full of emotions and adventures. The song chosen for this exercise is "This is Me" from the movie "The Greatest Showman" (The Greatest Showman Cast - This Is Me (Official Audio) - YouTube). From the image below, you have to select nine key words that appear in the lyrics of the song.
The task is to arrange these nine words on a bingo card, where there are three columns, each column containing three words. They can place the words in any order and use their creativity to design their bingo card in a unique and visually appealing way.
Once you have completed your bingo cards, I will provide you with a link where you can listen to the song "This is Me". Your goal is to listen carefully and mark the key words you have selected as you hear them in the song. Pay particular attention to pronunciation and to the moments when words stand out or are repeated.
I'm excited to see how you enjoy this listening activity and how you apply your ingenuity to create your personalised bingo cards. Get ready to dive into the world of music and be swept away by the powerful words of "This is Me".
Let the musical adventure begin and may bingo bring you victory!
Hello Yerai! I visited your blog and I loved it! Without a doubt this activity is my favourite, I think it's very original and the children would really enjoy doing it. It not only encourages listening but also helps their visual agility with that ingenious image. I'm sure it will be very useful for English classes as future English teachers!
ResponderEliminarHi Yerai!
ResponderEliminarTwo things have caught my attention.
Firstly, the originality and ingenuity of the activity, where through the imagination of the readers themselves they have to elaborate their own content. In addition, although you only have to put nine words, the musical note includes many others, so in a way the students can familiarise themselves with an extensive vocabulary.
On the other hand, I like the background photo as a visual hook to visit the blog, as that soup of letters and numbers is synonymous with fun, entertainment and learning.
Congratulations for your work!
Hi Yeray! I think this activity could be very interesting for the students, since it develop many skills in them as listening or reading. In addition, children will spend a great time doing this task
ResponderEliminarHi Yerai, I think the activity is very interesting but, in my opinion, it can have advantages and disadvantages:
ResponderEliminarAdvantages:
- The activity is a fun and creative way to encourage learning through music.
- Creating a personalized bingo can be an interesting and stimulating challenge for imagination and artistic ability.
- The activity allows participants to focus on the lyrics and pronunciation of key words, which can improve their understanding of the language.
Disadvantages:
