Variation : This activity can be used for Malay Language subject or Science. This is
because, it requires the students to identify a few things by just listening attentively
to a recorded material, for example a song and answering correctly the questions
given to them. It is clearly quite helpful for teaching Science specifically in teaching
the animals classes such as herbivore, omnivore or carnivore. While in Malay
Language Subject, the teacher can help the students in enhancing their listening
skills when it comes to grammar aspect. The teacher can use the song as a medium
for the student to identify what are the nouns( kata nama) , pronouns ( kata ganti
nama ) , Verbs ( Kata kerja ) that stated in the song.
