ELEPHANT SHOW

39 videocassettes

28 minutes each/Pre-K-Grade 3

Produced by Cambium Film & Video Productions Ltd.

The ELEPHANT SHOW is an award winning music education series
that teaches reading readiness and social skills while delighting
and engaging children in making music.

Each half-hour program explores a new theme through adventure,
fantasy, mystery, and song with North America's best loved
children's recording artists, Sharon, Lois & Bram. Already a
favorite with children, the series has strong educational value
for the classroom. Sharon, Lois & Bram use primarily traditional
materials which stress participation: action songs, sing-along
songs, story songs, clapping songs, singing games, playground
chants and rhymes, and folk songs from many different traditions.

The repertoire includes:

• songs that build language skills (by the use of rhyming,
  echoing, counting, naming colors, animals and parts of the body,
  and by use of narrative);
  

• songs that build physical skills (teaching clapping patterns,
  miming, finger play, and simple dances);
  

• songs that develop healthy social attitudes (of sharing,
  loving, respecting, and enjoying cultural differences);
  

• songs that nourish and stimulate the imagination;
  

• songs to sing for the love of singing.
  

TEACHER'S GUIDE

Each videocassette is accompanied by a teacher's guide co-
authored by a teacher and a music education specialist. Each guide
includes music and lyrics, a curriculum-based discussion guide,
and activities for social studies, language arts, and art.
