Bring a Community Sing-Along to your school.  This is a great way to unify your student body and your teachers and build community in just a month.  It quickly plants a structure for character and the arts, that is simple to use and very effective.  The character building kits, This is Where I Live & Together We Can Do Great Things and the Professional Development are included for each class that participates.

The Program Includes:

We begin with a Professional Development for all teachers in your elementary school.  It is designed to inspire and empower teachers to bring singing into daily classroom activities.

Instructional Artist Teachers work with classrooms for 3 consecutive weeks rehearsing two to three songs.  This helps students develop a sense of rhthm, song form, choreography, memorization and performance skills.

Sing-Along Concert with a live band and student participation will complete the program.  Each class will have the opportunity to lead the assembly in singing and introduce songs with relevant quotes.

* We are an LAUSD ARTS Community Partnership Network member.

We LOVE "This is Where I Live," and we have adopted it as our School Song!  We sing it schoolwide at all of our attendance assemblies, and for our annual talent show, we had a group of first graders who dressed up in different career costumes (fireman, ballerina, chef, astronaut, etc) and sang the song for the school, complete with the hand motions and other choreographed steps that their teachers taught them.  - Karen Brown, Principal - Marianna Avenue Elementary - LAUSD
