The topic of this paper, using songs in EFL classroom, is something that teachers come
across on a daily basis in their EFL classrooms. However, not much attention was devoted to the proper use of songs in foreign language classroom. Therefore, the aim of this paper was to present the result of a research done in a primary school “Kaćuni” in central part of Bosnia regarding the proper use and effect of songs on acquisition of English language. Subjects in the research were students of different age groups from grade 3 to grade 8. The types of songs and poems used in the research from range from made-for-EFL to popular songs. The research results suggest that songs as a tool for language learning and teaching are a powerful tool which is underappreciated and unused sufficiently in EFL classroom.
