http://www.musiceducationmadness.comThe Task You are an employee of a local radio station. Your boss, who grew up during the "Golden Age" of radio, has decided to add new programming to the station. He has assigned you and your co-workers the task of writing and producing a new radio drama. Your boss expects you and your co-workers to research the history of radio drama and use this knowledge to create a script for a new radio mystery/suspense series. He wants the script to contain references to sound effects as well as the actors' dialogue. In addition to the script, you and your team are to present a recorded demo-version of the play, complete with sound effects, that will be recorded on audio cassette.

This website has music for fun for Pre-K through 2nd grade. The songs are done by Bob McGrath from Sesame Street. (Most of us may remember Bob) You can get books that have punch-out puppets that go along with the songs. There are some songs that have signing gestures that go along with them as well.
