A & C Black Alligator Raggedy Mouth

This attractive collection of descriptive poems, colourful rhymes and rhythmic raps chosen by Jacalyn Leedham is the perfect stimulus for music in the classroom. It shows you how to use your responses to the poetry as starting points for music-making. The mood of the words, their colourful, contrasting sounds, the rhythm of the phrases and the way they fit together will inspire children aged 7-11 years to explore and learn about simple musical ideas and structures.
