The children love to sing and learn songs, so they were introduced to some older evergreen songs by the teachers. Having had the opportunity to listen to some of the songs from decades ago, the teachers discussed with the children if they knew what some of their grandparents’ favourite songs from that era were.The children were pretty unsure when asked that. Some knew the songs that their parents loved to listen to all the time but none of them knew their grandparent’s favourite songs.
To figure out their grandparent’s favourite songs, the children worked together with the teachers to create a survey form for their grandparents to fill out. This survey form would bring us closer to knowing some of the favourite songs of the grandparents.After collating the results of the survey, the children and teachers of the various classes picked out three to four of the top survey songs to listen to.
When they had listened to all the songs, the children voted on which one song they wanted to perform for their grandparents.
The children practiced really hard and finally they were ready to perform. The class teachers took a video of their class performing their chosen song.
The performance video was then sent to their parents via the school app, asking them to forward the performance to the grandparents.
The grandparents really enjoyed seeing their grandchildren grooving to some really old and popular songs.
