Social Science English Songs for Primary School Students
If you’ve been searching for social science English songs for primary school students, you’ve come to the right place. In this post, I’m sharing a list of all of the English songs I’ve found online for teaching social sciences topics to first, second, and third grade primary school students in a bilingual school in Spain.
For my social sciences lessons—and for almost all of my English lessons for that matter—I’ve found songs to be very helpful for teaching and practicing new English vocabulary words. Besides, students just tend to have more fun when English songs and games are played throughout each lesson.
Here, you’ll find a list of English songs for teaching social sciences subjects to primary school students. These songs are organized by subject, which I’ve listed in alphabetical order.
