Music; Singing

Song Singing falls under the Performing strand of the music curriculum. I think its one of the easier strands to teach but at times it can be difficult to think of suitable songs to teach. I’m hoping to share a list of songs that I enjoy teaching below – if you have any more to add please let me know! I’ve decided not to split the list into year groups as it really depends on the class.

Movies and Musicals

I love songs from movies and musicals!
