Introduction to Stars at the Harbour Package.

The 'Stars at the harbour' pack can be used in many ways. It focuses on the mathematical concept of the star shape through different stars found at the harbour and seaside. Each song focuses on a different aspect of the star shape. For example, the first song, the captain's song, uses as its focus the star on the cap of a captain of a ship. There is an audio link at the bottom of the page to sample a section of this song. The starry picnic song uses star shaped food as focus, whilst the flag rap looks at all the countries with stars on their flags. There are 8 different songs.

The DVD lasts for 30 minutes and runs continuously, though the DVD is sectioned into tracks so that you can select one part of the programme if you wish. The songs are linked by 30 seconds of music to give you time to change props or position.

60 photos accompany the music and reflect the song content. They change every 30 seconds to give time for the participants to look at the photograph.

In the fully photocopiable booklet are a list of suggested props to use and actions to do during the songs.
