A BRAND NEW product; a CD-ROM or download of all the songs called "Sing it!" is available. This CD-ROM or download can teach the songs to the children without any teacher input. Children can use it at school or at home - think of the time it will save you! Most schools use it in class on an interactive white board or in the school hall on the overhead projector to allow full cast practice. Children LOVE learning this way and the product is foolproof.
Read the "Sing it!" reviews 'The "Sing it!" products were fantastic.' The Downs School, Bristol. 'Absolutely amazing material.' Mary O'Neill-Delano, Canada. ' "Sing it!" is fantastic for us less musically inclined teachers.' The Coppice Primary, Worcestershire. 'I really appreciate the "Sing it!" component as we often use this in rehearsals.' Newborough East Primary, Victoria, Australia. 'Can I also say that your "Sing it!" CD was brilliant.' Key Stage 2 teacher, Singapore.
Sugar Plum's wand is broken thanks to Elvin the mischievous elf. However, Sugar Plum, the Christmas Fairy, soon realises that she can bring a little bit of magic into people's lives even without it!
Sugar Plum is a lovely, simple Christmas production that is perfect for the NQT or those less confident in staging a production.
Scene One: Santa's Back Yard
Santa and his helpers are very busy packing the sleigh but Elvin the naughty Elf is playing his usual tricks! Thankfully, Sugar Plum is on hand with her magic wand to save the day.
Scene Two: Christmas School
The little Elves and Fairies are practising their Christmas carols. While all his other class mates are happy with their instruments, naughty Elvin wants to play something different. He decides to play the snare drum but what can he use for a drumstick? He snatches Sugar Plum's wand and bangs the drum so hard that the magic wand breaks!
Scene Three: Mrs Toy Tester
Sugar Plum sets off to find Santa in the hope that his magic glue can fix her broken wand. She visits Mrs Toy Tester, who is in the process of testing out the Soldiers, Teddies and Robots, until Elvin gets hold of the remote and causes yet more trouble. After Sugar Plum helps Mrs Tester sort out Elvin's mess she continues on her search for Santa.
Scene Four: At The Toy Warehouse
Old Mr Ebenezer Elf is trying to sort out the boxes in his toy warehouse when naughty Elvin Elf scares him and the boxes fly everywhere! Fortunately, Sugar Plum is passing through on her way to find Santa and helps the old Elf tidy up.
Scene Five: The Tinsel Tidying Teams
The Tinsel Tidying Teams are busy sorting out jumbled tinsel before they decide to take a break. Elvin takes the opportunity to tangle the tidy tinsel and create even more mischief! Once again, Sugar Plum helps to right Elvin's wrongs as she helps the teams sort the tinsel and decorate a Christmas tree.
Scene Six: Santa's Back Yard Again
Sugar Plum finally tracks Santa down and tells him of her broken wand. It soon becomes clear to Santa that Elvin has been a very naughty Elf indeed! After making Elvin apologise to everybody, Santa gives Sugar Plum a very special gift as a reward for bringing magic into people's lives, even without her wand.
