I am a music specialist and the music I write is original, tested on children and for the less confident teacher. My aim is to provide you with everything you need to fulfil Topic requirements and those of the National Curriculum (without having to prepare anything.) I provide Power Points/videos and give you mp3s and lyrics. Notation is sometimes given. The instrumental parts are dead easy!

A simple but effective idea. The chant has a format. Children have to rewrite the spaces choosing appropriate words . They need to understand syllables before they can do this.

No frills lyrics to; Ding Dong Merrily, Holly and the Ivy, Shine Jesus Shine, You have heard our Christmas story, Once in royal David’s city, Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, And did those feet in ancient time, Silent night, holy night, Away in a manger, no crib for a bed, Hark! The herald-angels sing, O little town of Bethlehem, Who put the colours in the rainbow?

Two examples of different pitch (singing) Paul Robson and Diana Danrau from Queen of the night. There is a suggested activity for the children to compose with instruments. They could try their voices if you like. I have edited these videos so they get to the good 'bits quickly. For some reason, the children were entranced by them ! The web addresses are for the full length versions and original sources

I made this chart because I could never remember the different pitches of the instruments in our primary orchestra. After a while, I found that the pupils were using it and they began to work our their own pitch.

The interactive whiteboard resource is for key stage 1 and the PowerPoint for key stage 2. Both explore what an anthem is and when it is used. There is also a copy of the music for treble clef instruments and tablature for ocarinas. The original video is on the website indicated The flp file is quite old and I have had one person unable to open it. If this is the case, I have a resource entitled 'Then and now . Music and history for the Jubilee' You could try that instead.
