Muzyka, pieśni i piosenki w procesie nauczania i uczenia się języka polskiego jako drugiego w szkole podstawowej

The main purpose of this article is to draw attention to the role of pieces of music in the process of teaching and learning Polish as a second language. The theoretical discussion and the didactic implications following from it concern the students with migration experience who are attending the primary schools in Poland. Based on the traditional and non traditional teaching methods, the role of music and songs was discussed in teaching foreign languages. The legal acts were also described regulating the possibility and organization of learning in the Polish education system of students with the experience of migration. Moreover, the curricula were analysed in order to point to the need to use the music pieces in teaching Polish as a second language. Taking into account the benefits following from using the music pieces and the idea of the between-subjects correlation, examples of the music pieces were offered that can be used in classes of Polish as a second language. The content offered in the article serves to support both the process of teaching and learning Polish as a second language, and the broadly understood process of acculturation of students with the experience of migration.
