New Activity - Reindeer on my Roof

This month’s activity comes from Christmas with Jamo, a magical collection of new Christmas songs from Paul Jamieson with Rockin' Reindeers, funky feels, and loads of Reggae & Caribbean flavours. Includes songs about Santa Downunder and a stranded reindeer on the roof.

Purchase Christmas with Jamo.

You may have seen London born Carribean musician Paul Jamieson demonstrating reggae on Music Room 6 Or you may have seen him singing Calypso on Foxtel Or you may have seen him entertaining children at festivals around the country.

Paul’s original collection of new Christmas songs is uplifting, joyous, sometimes hilarious and always full of infectious rhythms and contagious grooves. Your kids will love it ... And YOU’LL love it!

You will find the free track here.

You will also find four demo tracks here.

Music Craft - Digital Versions in 2012

Hi Everyone
Mark Leehy here.

We are pleased to announce that we will have interactive digital versions of our Music Craft and Music Theory student books in 2012. The Music Craft series will be first, with the digital interactive version available mid-term 1. It will work with iPads and Android devices as well as notebooks, Macs and PCs.

A straight PDF version of the books (non-interactive) will be available in February, for those schools that want to start immediately.

To show you what we mean – check out the free interactive activity we posted earlier this month.

See you next time

The SPACE NOTES - puzzle from Music Craft Book A

This month’s activity comes from the E-book version of Music Craft Book A - currently under development.
It is a puzzle from Unit 5 - Sharps and Flats - and you won't need your coloured pencils this time.

It is a prototype and by the time the E-book edition is ready, we will be making more use of sounds and animations.

In the meantime, why not try the puzzle. It will work on your computer or your iPad. We would love your feedback.

You will find the puzzzle here.

We are also working on paperless and interactive versions of many of our publications which will include embedded music and videos and interactive worksheets and puzzles. These are intended to be used on iPads and similar devices, notebooks, Macs and PCs. We will be trialing one or two titles to start with ... and we'll see where that takes us
