One popular French song that can be used to teach class instructions is “Tête, épaules, genoux, pieds” (Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes). Although it is originally an English song, it has been translated into French and is commonly used in French classrooms to teach body parts and basic instructions. Here are the lyrics in French:

Tête, épaules, genoux, pieds, genoux, pieds Tête, épaules, genoux, pieds, genoux, pieds Yeux, oreilles, bouche, nez Tête, épaules, genoux, pieds, genoux, pieds

The song can be sung while pointing to the corresponding body parts, and it can also be used to practice other classroom instructions such as “lève-toi” (stand up), “assis-toi” (sit down), “saute” (jump), and “danse” (dance).
