Key Stage 1 BrightSparks Resources: Stan and Mabel

In this resources pack, designed for Key Stage 1 teachers, you will find all you need to prepare your pupils for, or work with them in response to, the LPO's Key Stage 1 BrightSparks concert on 22 February 2024. This concert is based on 'Stan and Mabel' by Jason Chapman, published by Templar Books.

With extra information about the orchestra, music, and story and theme for the concert, this resource pack, created by concert presenter Polly Ives and the London Philharmonic Orchestra, includes suggestions for classroom activities and tips for teaching the participation songs.

Teachers who did not attend the concert will still find this resource pack useful for delivering lessons about orchestral music or ‘Stan and Mabel’ in many areas of the curriculum, including music, literacy and art.

Included in this pack is a link to the participation songs on YouTube.

We would love to see any work your children create using these resources! If you’d like to share this with us, send it to  [email protected]
