Ένα πούπουλο μικρό!
📚 This song serves as an educational tool for introducing basic vocabulary related to school. It is structured into three parts to enhance the learning experience.
🏫 In the first part, students visually identify different aspects of school life, including the classroom, the teacher, the contents of their school bags, and various subjects such as math and physics. They sing along with the teacher, who employs body movements and gestures to illustrate these objects and subjects. This approach allows students to observe the pronunciation and articulation of the words from the teacher, thereby facilitating their acquisition of the Greek language.
📝 The second part replicates the first but incorporates subtitles into the song. This helps students connect each word with its written form, enabling them to sing along while reading the lyrics.
🎤 In the third part, referred to as "Your Turn," students are encouraged to sing the song independently. This section operates as a karaoke-style activity where students can follow the song's melody without the teacher's vocal guidance. Subtitles and accompanying video images offer additional clarity and context for this activity.
📚 Furthermore, this vocabulary is further reinforced through stories and additional songs featured in the book titled "A Little Feather" ("Ένα πούπουλο μικρό"), available on lulu.com. This book is specifically designed for young learners who are enthusiastic about learning Greek as a second or foreign language.
🎶 Here is the exact translation of the song:
"I go to school, I see the kids, I see the teacher.
We all have a great time.
In my classroom, I dance, I play, and I sing.
I learn and I explore the world.
In my book bag, I have a pencil, a marker, and a pen.
I have glue, scissors, and a small board.
I have a ruler and an eraser, as well as books for kids.
In my school, we all have a great time.
At school, I learn math, language, physics, and art.
I run up and down in the gym. I really enjoy the music.
I learn to read and I learn to count.
I learn music and how to sing.
During recess, I play and speak Greek.
In my school, we all have a great time."
