Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening (SA and Piano)
The package includes the full score as well as a separate, reproducible vocal part.This wonderful poem by Robert Frost describes the feeling of pausing deep in the woods, on a dark and snowy winter night. We experience a sense of peacefulness in the solitude there but we cannot linger long as there is still much to do and a long way to go before we can rest.This song was written to allow the lyrics to flow naturally without confining them in strict rhythms; performers are encouraged to interpret

Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Sleigh! by Mo Willem
Here's a fun book and song for your kids! I purposely made the instrumentation sound a bit like Jingle Bells. There is only one measure where they change, and they will need to practice that, but it shouldn't be too difficult. Remember to add a Hey! at the end on beat four!

Squeak, Rumble, Whomp, Whomp, Whomp by Wynton Marsalis
This is a fun one! I did not add percussion instruments because each of us has different instruments in our classroom. I would add something that "squeaks" when we sing "Squeak" and something that "rumbles" when we sing "Rumble" and some kind of drum for Whomp, Whomp, Whomp. I would use a Tick Tock for that "Tick, Tock" and maybe a clave or woodblock for "Clack" and a bass drum for "Boom Boom". You can obviously add other instruments as well. Have fun with it.

Global Worming Musical
The children in this school are sick and tired of the teachers’ boring lessons. The teachers are fed up with bored children who don’t listen to them. Everyone is happy when the school year finishes and summer holidays begin. Everyone, that is, except the school principal who is rather unceremoniously replaced.
The new school year begins with a new school principal, Mr Wrathmore. The teachers are summoned to a staff meeting only to find that they are to be replaced by substitutes and imprisoned

Iza Trapani's "Twinkle Twinkle" accompaniment MP3
I LOVE Iza Trapani's books and, as a music teacher, I love to sing them to the class so I have created this MPS file to do just that. This recording was built to support her "Twinkle Twinkle" book and all the extra verses.
The music is from Mozart "Variations on 'Ah vous dirai-je Maman'" a public domain work that I have chopped up and rearranged to fit the book exactly. There are several places where there is no text and my accompaniment allows for that.
You will find this the perfect springbo
