These creative learning toolkits really do bring history to life! Each CD-Rom uniquely animates key characters who present their stories in a variety of ways, including through catchy original songs.
'Blast from the Past' features Guy Fawkes presenting the story of the Gunpowder Plot. Join in with his interview, listen to the story in song and use the drama role play and thinking skills activities to enhance the teaching and learning experience. Suitable for use with Year 2 and Key Stage 2 pupils.
I recently used “Blast from the Past” with my class of 25 Year 4 children and they were totally enthused by the various activities that it covered! We used the song to help consolidate our understanding of the key events of “The Gunpowder Plot” and also performed the song for an assembly, with a range of musical accompaniments. Using the CD helped my class to understand and use a range of musical terminology. Selected children confidently performed solos of the various verses.

'Rainbows or Stormclouds'
Five catchy, original worship songs for everyone to enjoy - you just won't be able to stop singing them!
The double CD format means you can use the data disc in a laptop to project directly onto a screen whilst using the audio disc in a CD player. Each song comes as a track with and without vocals.
The children in our school loved the songs from the ‘Rainbows or Stormclouds’ CD. From a teacher's point of view, having backing tracks, lyrics and sheet music provided means that they can be used easily with the minimum of preparation. A great success!
