Core Curriculum Library

Music Player - Featured Songs

Our educational music library contains four full-length albums in four major subject areas: Math, Science, English Language Arts, and Social Studies (primarily US History). Using curriculum standards from the adoption states–California, Texas, and Florida–as well as New York and Massachusetts, we have produced an initial collection of music designed to engage students and give teachers a high-quality supplement to assist with teaching in classrooms and beyond.

We encourage students to listen to these songs on their own time through repeated listening at home or on a portable music player, such as a CD player or iPod. In response to feedback from people who wuse our music for teaching, each educational album contains four versions of each song to aid students and teachers with the learning and memorization process.
