A little help if possible please x

I'm teaching a little Spanish at the school i work in (luckily they are low ability as my Spanish is pants ) - but i dont just want it to be a bit of speaking - im trying to include culture, music, fashion, food, tradition etc - could someone please point me in the direction of some Spanish music that i can download
Thank you in advance

Who do the younger ones listen to xxxxx

Sam, do you have access to a computer to teach with? There are loads of Youtube things to download if you do.

This is a very simple one but briliant for teaching parts of the body. Singing them helps to make the learning fun. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GkSuyFMLrKQ

If the link doesn't work try typing in Juan Pequeno bailar.

Good luck

use youtube

I just asked dd1 - she likes Melendi, Don Omar, Juan Magan, Danny Romero

this was played over & over at every discomóvil & a local nightclub this summer



we have La Voz on telecinco now - it's been going about 3 weeks

and apparently PitBull does a lot of stuff in Spanish

eta - these too














this has set her off youtubing now................... let me know if you want this sort of thing & we'll give you a list tomorrow

if you put 'con letras' in the youtube search you get vids with the words on

This site may be very useful to you. It has a strange dated selection of videos (no Chambao? No Sabina? No Bebe?), but since it lists the English and Spanish lyrics side by side it may be very good for your purposes?

Edit: Just seen that although Joaquin Sabina hasn't been tagged as a category, he is in there in a Christmas duet with Joan Manual Serrat (the famous Catalan folk singer). So this may be something to play to the class as we get closer to Xmas, and perhaps talk about the Catalan issue?
