Brief Statement & Additional Information:

~ Curriculum-Aligned Songs ~  
A perfect medium for motivating and engaging students, our songs support & integrate daily classroom learning across key subject areas. They also offer a solution to that all-important assembly item or performance piece!

Our curriculum-aligned songs & lesson materials target outcomes and learning sequences of curriculum documents, and support and integrate classroom learning across key areas of school curriculum (K-6).

They require no musical ability – it’s as easy as pressing the ‘Play’ button on your CD player or computer - putting the power of song within the reach of all teachers. *Music scores are included for those who wish to use them.

Our all original songs, with their curriculm-based content, are perfect for:

*Introducing new units of work
*Kick starting discussion
*Summarising and reinforcing content
*Aiding recall of important information
*Extending literacy
*Assembly & performance pieces…

'In terms of application to the classroom, and usability by teachers they rate a tick in every box.' ~ Brendan Hitchens, Music Teacher, Music In Action: A Magazine for Educators
