One of the best ways to learn is through song and dance. Here my students and I are learning body parts via the song "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes."
The boy on the right is my 5th grade student, Idan. He likes American hip hop. Currently we are working on making up a hip hop song with our English vocabulary words. I decided to go with this format of learning because he doesn't like to study. I figure if we turn studying into something he actually enjoys, it might be running through his head when he is trying to fall asleep at night. At the end of the year he will be performing our rap for his classmates for a final letter grade.
