Term 3 Week 5: International Languages Week

This week is International Languages Week.

Here's many different ways to say thank you.

This is a Mother's Day greeting in 27 languages. 

Here's some animal sounds in different languages.


Here's a song to help you count to ten in Spanish - forwards and backwards.

Last week we learnt this round: Rose, Rose, Rose, Rose. There are many different versions of this folk song. 
  Here's a link to the music for it. The second part is another song taht can be sung in counterpoint with Rose.

Remember  The William Tell Overture by Rossini  from Term 1? Here's another piece attributed to Rossini - where  the  music is written as if cats were singing it. Two boys sing the parts of the cats.  It's called (In Italian) “Duetto buffo di due gatti” - Funny duet for two cats.
