MusicFirst

The perfect music education tool for K–5 students, this all-in-one online subscription has everything you need to cultivate students' lifelong love of music. With more than 1,000 interactive resources, the National Standards-aligned curriculum includes 36 lessons per grade level, divided into six units, and reinforces concepts and skills in a musical and progressive manner. While the curriculum is comprehensive and fully sequenced, it is also flexible and customizable, allowing you to tailor the curriculum to your students' specific needs and preferences. 
 
Each lesson is song-based and includes supporting sheet music, recordings, student learning objectives, suggestions for lesson extensions, and more. All songs are age-appropriate, authentic, high-quality, and engaging, and they complement Orff- and Kodaly-inspired teaching. Along with the lessons, find a wealth of supporting documentation like National Standards alignment, scope and sequence, detailed guides for creative tools, curriculum guides, and ready-to-teach mini-projects. Supplementary resources are also available: musicals, resources for classroom instruments, Spanish songs, musical games, and more. Students can log on to use creative tools like composition software and a beginner-friendly DAW system to make learning even more interactive.
 
Available in 12-month increments, this online subscription provides access for an unlimited number of students in one school. Discounted rates apply to the three-, four-, and five-year options. Whether you're an experienced music teacher or new to the profession, MusicFirst Elementary is for you! Empower creativity and encourage active music making by asking students to sing, move, perform, create, and play – every lesson, every day.
