Tudor song- Don't Forget Lady Jane Grey!

Tudor song- Don't Forget Lady Jane Grey!

(7)
This is a fun song about the Tudor kings and queens. I’ve tried to create a medieval feel with the music too so I hope it’s more than just a song about facts. 'Henry the Seventh killed Richard the Third, First time the Tudor name was heard, Had two sons but his first son, Arthur died, So Henry the Eighth was the one who survived’… 'Lady Jane Grey, the nine days Queen, Shortest reign you’ve ever seen, Went to the block, her head went splat, ‘Cos Bloody Mary took the throne and that was that!’…

A Seed So Small

A Seed So Small

(4)
This is an upbeat song about how a small seed grows into a plant and flower given the right conditions. ' A seed so small, a seed so small, lots of plants start from a seed so small...Let's plant the seed into the ground, cover it with soil in a great big mound....'
We Wish You a Merry Christmas Backing Track

We Wish You a Merry Christmas Backing Track

(4)
I have made this to use in the schools I teach in and thought it might be useful for other people to use in their Christmas celebrations. I've included the copy of the lyrics as they fit the music - the same music is repeated three times.
Cinderella Story

Cinderella Story

(3)
This song was written for a class assembly and goes through the traditional Cinderella story. It lends itself to actions and interpretation, and I often add a percussion accompaniment to the final line of each verse for added interest (just following the rhythm of the words).
Castles

Castles

(17)
This is a thoughtful song about the stories and history of castles. I hope it will provoke discussion about what castles were used for and about how they are portrayed in stories as well as their role in our documented history.

When Jim Met the Giant

Ready! Set! Go!

Ready! Set! Go!

(2)
An energetic and fun song to warm up for any sporty event. The repeated refrain: Ready! Set! Go! sets the tone and works best if performed as an echo between two groups of singers. Actions are a must - just follow the words and have fun!
Oats And Beans

Oats And Beans

(2)
This is a lovely traditional song I have set to lively music. It works really well with actions and tells the story of how a farmer plants his seeds and watches them grow. 'Oats and beans and barley grow...do you or I or anyone know how oats and beans and barley grow?' I've added the slower backing so it's easier to get the words in.
Trains And Planes

Trains And Planes

(4)
How do you want to travel today? A lively song about the different ways we get around today. Chorus: Trains and planes and bicycles and cars, boats and scooters, a rocket to Mars (whoosh!), carriages, coaches, fast or slow, anyhow, anywhere, go! Go! Go!

An upbeat song describing a few of the more popular dinosaurs. 'Triceratops with horns and frill, Stegosaurus and Pterodactyl...' With piano score, performance, backing track and lyric sheet. Good for a few stomp and chomp actions too!

It uses repetition and echoing of sums and sequences to further enhance the numbers and is great fun to listen to and move to.
