- Conjunctions (FANBOYS)
- Modal Verbs
- Active and Passive voice
- Tenses
Here at Out of the Ark Music, we are really excited about our brand-new series of Curriculum Crunchers, designed to bring little bits of the curriculum to life through song. We know how music can play an essential part in helping to embed information for life, and therefore what better way to learn those core topics than through catchy, fun songs that you'll want to sing again and again?! We hope you enjoy this series and have as much fun with it as we've had putting it together.
You’ll notice the tracks for these books are sung by an adult voice, not our usual Out of the Ark choir. This is partly due to COVID-19 recording restrictions, but it also suits the KS2 age-group these songs are for and makes them perfect for playing in the classroom.
Curriculum Crunchers: English includes a Words on Screen™ eSongbook, that you can access instantly in your online account! The Words on Screen™ Player allows you to access all your resources available in the book and CD and also display song lyrics on any whiteboard, computer screen, television or interactive touchscreen. The lyrics synchronize with the music as it plays making them easy to teach and easy to learn!
