Oh, La La, Sing Your Way to French Level I, Part 1.......2006-01-14

The CD "Oh, La ,La" is a HIT with my 3-6th grade students. Even though the CD was written for middle and high school students, I have found it to be very successful with my elementary students. The vocabulary, verb conjugations, idioms and many grammatical structures are put to music. My students love the upbeat catchy tunes and as they are swinging and swaying to the music they are learning. The students are always asking to use our bag of props especially for the "avoir" and "moi je fais ma valise rose" songs. We have also incorporated some of the songs into our spring French fashion show. One only has to see the excitement and enthusiasm shown by my students to know that "Oh,La,La" works. The beat goes on!

My students adore it!.......2005-12-23

As a French teacher, I've been using this CD set for the past four years. The CDs are designed for middle school-aged students, but I can use several songs for my 4th and 5th graders. The tunes are catchy and the students love them! I dress up like a rapper (not a pretty sight for a middle-aged white woman) and sing along to "Me Voici" in the beginning of the year. "Moi, je fais ma valise rose" is a fun way to teach possessive adjectives. The creators of the CD offer a bulk discount, which I offer to the students each year.

Less than inspiring.......2005-10-09

I bought this CD because I thought it would be a good refresher on the French I learned in high school. I also thought that since I have been known to sing along with the radio or even to myself that I would be singing along to the songs on this CD. Unfortunately, I found the music less than inspiring, and I also doubt that one would learn much if you did not already know some French - the CD jacket has the words of the songs but nothing else. This CD definitely lacks joie de vivre. Good idea but poor execution. I feel I wasted $18.00.

Don't teach French without it! .......2005-12-23

As a French teacher, I've been using this CD set for the past four years. The CDs are designed for middle school-aged students, but I can use several songs for my 4th and 5th graders. The tunes are catchy and the students love them! They offer a great alternative for older elementary school children. You can do even more with these songs in middle school.

My students' current favorite is "Mon appartement," with a great chorus that the kids love to sing (and act out). However, we are learning "La Francophonie," which might become the new favorite. The creators of the CD offer a bulk discount, which I offer to my students each year.
