Bonjour!

I am an American living in Normandy, France. I am teaching ESL at an all French speaking elementary school. Could anyone help me with suggestions for songs and games that would be appropriate to teach basic vocabulary (colors, shapes, seasons, numbers, letters, etc.) to pre-school students? I am running out of ideas and still have 4 more months of lessons to prepare!

I was an elementary classroom teacher in California before moving to France, but this is the first time I'm attempting to teach ESL. It's a wonderful challenge and a great lesson in communication. I just don't have access to the resources and would love your input.

MERCI!
