Abstract:
This study investigates the impact of English educational songs on the developmentof speaking skills in Algerian primary schools. Given the importance of speaking in language acquisition, integrating songs into classroom instruction presents a creative and engaging method to support oral language development. The research was conducted in Touggourt and its neighbouring mu-nicipalities and involved 62 primary school English teachers, including 32 online participants from areas such as Tibet, Hjira, Hassi-messsoud, and El-Oued. A quantitative research design was employed using a structured questionnaire to collect data. The obtained findings revealed that the majority of teachers support the use of educational songs, recognizing their potential to improve speaking proficiency and classroom engagement. The study underscored the need to integrate modern, interactive materials-including songs, videos, and games-into EFL curricula. It concluded by encouraging teachers to incorporate such resources to create more dynamic and authentic language learning environments.
