A day to get singing started in your classroom. It doesn’t sound like a lot does it? And the great thing is that in as little as 5 minutes you can achieve great things. You can build your children’s confidence, re-energise yourself and your class, give your class a reason to look forward to the next day and improve their self-esteem. That’s a lot to gain from such a short space of time.

 

To get you started we’ve come up with a list of pointers;

• Register for the Song Bank and the magazine. Here you can find lots of fun and easy ways to involve singing in your everyday activities!

• Start it slow! If you are nervous about getting your class singing, or even singing yourself, start with a basic warm-up. You can find loads of warm-ups in our Song Bank.

• Don’t be afraid! We’ve identified 10 starter songs for you to check out to see what catches your fancy. Try one or try them all.
