Janet and Wendy have built KMC out of a love for teaching children and enjoyment of watching them blossom with musical experiences.

They have extensive teaching experience in the last 20 years in primary schools, early childhood centres and the private studio. Their original music sells around the world, and they are in demand to run workshops for teachers and parents.

Our workshops will help teachers appreciate that music can be used as a valuable teaching tool for whole body learning and development. The songs are cross-referenced to the curriculum, saving teachers time, and helping with their planning.

Our CD range covers three main areas: 'Sing, Move and Play' Collections, Instrumental Collections, and Choral Collections.

 

'Sing, Move and Play' Collections: Each album in this range have songs for singing, listening, playing instruments and moving (both creatively and in set formation). Lots of whole body activities to develop many other areas of learning - all while having fun! These CDs and Teacher Books have been developed for the generalist classroom teacher who wants to teach music but doesn't necessarily know where to start.

 

Instrumental Collections: The Teacher's Books for our Instrumental range are user-friendly. Each song has a sequence of  teaching steps that are easy to follow.  We have used quality backings, as accompaniments, with “live musicians”, so children feel as though the whole thing is a “live experience” and they are producing “real music”.



Choral: These wonderful albums contain a range of well known songs for school choirs or general classroom singing. The accompanying CD has vocal tracks plus backing tracks for performance situations. The Choral Book has all the harmony parts written out for the teacher. This means that everything you need is provided. The teacher doesn’t have to be able to play an instrument as quality backing tracks are provided for that purpose.

“Our delegates obviously enjoyed your session enormously, and a lot of evaluations included comments such as "learned heaps - lots of new ideas to take back to my centre", "very well prepared and presented - really enjoyed it", "inspired me to continue to work at music", "wonderful exciting workshop" - and they all seem to have wished that the session could have been longer!”
