Thought CD Volume 1
Many years ago I ran into a jazz compilation CD as I was reading a Sunday newspaper. It was short, sweet and exactly what I needed. I decided to use it in one of my classes as a management tool. The rules were that I would play the CD while the children were doing their work, as long as I could hear the songs. That's why they had to use their quiet voices to talk to each other in pair work. The children loved the music, which was soothing and helped them settle down to work. The compilation has grown since then, sometimes to incorporate songs that my students love.
What follows is the original Thought CD compilation. I hope you like it as much as we do.
1. La vie en rose. Louis Armstrong
2. Feeling Good. Nina Simone
3. I wish I knew how it would feel to be free. Nina Simone
4. All of you. Miles Davis
