What's your favourite sport?


In Livani, basketball is a favourite sport

The FunSongs website is evolving and enlarging. The aim is to provide an increasing number of quality worksheets, more action song package downloads and an easier experience for visitors to the site. This week sees the completion of the latest language-learning action song written by Charles Goodger entitled What's your favourite sport? designed to focus primary school classes on the kind of words English uses to describe a range of team sports including football, soccer, cricket, rugby and basketball. Just this week rugby was officially recognized as an olympic sport.

Part of Verse 3

Bounce the ball
And throw it fast

Make sure your aim is true!



The theme lends itself well to the TPR aspects of the FunSongs Approach.
What's your favourite sport? will be available for download before the end of November 2009.
