Age 5 -The Listening to Music series actively engages children in listening to music so that they can perform it and compose it themselves. Each pack comprises a visually exciting book a CD of all the recordings and a CD-ROM of interactive whiteboard activities and printouts.The book brings together music from China West Africa India South America and Europe ? an eclectic mix of traditional historical and contemporary music. Through the activities children recognise and use the building blocks of music: long and short sounds high and low loud and quiet fast and slow. They then perform their own versions of some of the recordings and theycompose others ? always listening perceptively to their own and others music.Teachers will find this title a useful accompaniment to Music Express Years 1 and 2 and and an enjoyable source of alternative activities for their primary music scheme of work.

Children's Song Favorites is a collection of 75 songs for children of all ages most of them from the folk tradition. They have been collected over more than fifty years by a professional folk singer who is also a mother andgrandmother. Each song has the melody line complete lyrics and suggested accompaniment chords for guitar or other instrument. Many of them are unusual— for example all 13 verses of 'The Three Blind Mice ' 'Hail to Britannia' (aBritish nursery rhyme song) and for older children 'Chopo My Pony' (a cowboy song) 'Old Thompson's Mule' (of minstrel origin) and 'The Housewife's Lament.' Audience requests have persuaded the author to include two pieces shehas written—'The Doll Song' and 'The Solution to Pollution.' More than three-quarters of the songs involve audience participation making this an ideal repertory resource for teachers and youth leaders. A few descriptivesentences sometimes with suggestions for creative activity precede each song. The songs are arranged alphabetically and an extra table of contents lists the songs by categories: animals cowboys and the West creative activity dance tunes history holidays quiet time and teaching. Although this book was designed primarily for children the author regularly uses many of these songs with grown-up audiences.
