| Sissy is in her first job as a kitchen maid in a large Victorian London household. Her mother desperately needs the money she earns to support her younger siblings, but Sissy is accident prone and the irascible cook threatens to sack her. With Sissy's brother feared killed in the war in the Crimea, disaster looms for Sissy and her family. Then a dramatic encounter with the writer Charles Dickens brings a change in fortune. This delightful play brings Victorian London and its people to life and provides a variety of opportunities for KS2 classes to explore both historical and literacy topics in an involving and creative setting. | |||||

Notes: | - | |||||
Synopsis: | This baker's dozen of traditional tales re-told by the wonderful Kaye Umansky is a much-loved resource of musical fun through stories. Interweaving the stories are songs with familiar melodies and specially re-written words which carry the action along. Umansky has also added parts for percussion, actions, and simple ideas for composition which develop the implied musical concepts. There are songs to sing, games to play, raps to clap, sounds to explore and music to compose. The book is illustrated throughout with light-hearted and lively cartoons of the creatures, characters and actions from the stories. Non-specialists - even those who have never read a note of music in their lives and are not confident in handling musical ideas - should find this book ideal as a simple and quick way into the music curriculum. A superb collection which opens the door into clasroom music | |||||
