AU - Ben Mustafa, Abdelkareem A. AB - This paper examined the attitudes of Libyan primary school teachers and students towards using songs as a facilitating tool for teaching English in classes. The study is divided into two parts; the first part is based on a questionnaire which was administered to 50 English teachers of primary schools in Misrata who were chosen randomly. For more understanding five teachers were interviewed. The second part was based on observation to a primary class. For more accuracy, a video-recording was used for the class. The objective of this study was to show how songs can help students to learn and enjoy English at the same time; for teachers, to know to deal with the large number of students per class complexity and how to use these activities in classes. The result showed that both teachers and students had positive attitudes for teaching and learning English through songs. Comments added by the teachers and students are included and evaluated in the study. This study also suggested that song activities should be widely applied in teaching different grades, such as high level learners or even elder learners learning.
