He sits on his perch and he sings all day

A, B, C, D, E, F, G,
That’s what he sings to me,
My parrot in the tree

That’s what he sings to me,
My parrot in the tree

To students and teachers:

Hello and welcome to the Barcelona Young Learners Podcast site.

What is a podcast?

A podcast is an mp3 auio file that can be similar to a radio show, but which you can download and listen in your mp3 player, or on your computer at home.

On this site you will be able to listen to audio files in English, but if you really want to be cool, download the free program called iPodder to your computer at home and then listen to the English podcast in your mp3 player when you are on the train, on the way to school, etc.

The iPodder program can download the podcast to your mp3 player automatically as soon as a new podcast becomes available.

Listen to the introductory podcast (look for the podcast logo on the right) for more details.
