Zusammenfassung: | The present study focused on teaching English alphabet as a fundamental task in English teaching. The study was an attempt to investigate the impact of English versus Persian songs on the learning of English alphabet by Iranian EFL learners. For the purpose of this study, a group of 90 kids (N=90) were randomly selected as the participants. Then, they were divided into three experimental groups: (a) English songs group, (b) Persian songs group, and (c) English and Persian songs group. As the treatment for the study, selected English and/or Persian songs were taught to the respective groups; this was done to determine the effective method for teaching English alphabet to young learners who do not have knowledge of the English language and its writing system. The analysis of the data indicated that teaching English through English and Persian songs and making use of both of them simultaneously can be more efficient for young learners. |
