The Little Jammers Curriculum
When Little Jammers was created, we didn't want it to be a one-size-fits-all type of curriculum. We know that no two music schools are the same, so we wanted to create a curriculum that best fits the needs of your music school, no matter what business model you use.
Whether you already have a full-on band program, or want to start ensembles or group classes at your school, Little Jammers has options that will work for you. Below are our three package options we currently offer to music schools.
Little Jammers Preview Pack
The Preview Pack contains 8 of the 21 songs from the Base Curriculum and includes most of the concepts that Little Jammers covers. This option is perfect if you want to try out Little Jammers before going all-in with one of our base curriculum packages.
You can use the preview pack for a summer camp, a specialty one-time class, or whatever! You have the option to upgrade to the other curriculum options in the future.
Included in the Preview Pack are:
8 songs from the full Base Curriculum that covers most concepts taught.
1 Songbook from the Condensed Curriculum Package (includes Piano Keys, Guitar Chords, and Ukulele chords).
Backing tracks for each song set at 60bpm.
The Little Jammers Preview pack is a one-time price of $100. Membership is not required to purchase the Preview Pack.
Little Jammers Base Curriculum
The Base Curriculum includes everything you need to get your program up and running. This option is perfect for solo-teacher and multi-teacher music schools alike that have all the equipment and instruments ready to go. For this option, you'd want to have the following instruments to use all the materials:
Piano Keyboard with at least 46 keys
Kids size or Half-sized Guitar
Junior or Small Sized Drumset
Optional: Microphone and/or amplifier with cables.
Included in the Base Curriculum are:
All 21 songs of the full curriculum.
The Keyboard Book, Guitar Book, Drums Book, and Singing books.
Band Leader Book with Lesson plans
Slow (60 bpm) and fast (80bpm) backing tracks.
The Little Jammers Base Curriculum is a one-time price of $500. Membership is required to purchase the Base Curriculum.
Little Jammers Simplified Base Curriculum (Band-In-A-Bucket Option)
The Simplified Base Curriculum is referred to our "Band-In-A-Bucket" option because it doesn't require every instrument, or full-on instruments to be used in your lessons or classes. AND, everything can fit in a bucket right next to you for easy storage and close proximity! Using the Condensed doesn't require full-blown rock-band instruments.
You can use this option with just one or two instruments such as:
Piano and/or keyboard
Ukulele and/or Kid-Sized Acoustic Guitar
5-Gallon Bucket for Drumming with Sticks.
Included in the Condensed Base Curriculum are:
A single Songbook that includes Piano Keys, Guitar Chords, and Ukulele Chords,
Bucket Drum Book (which is optional to use).
The Band Leader book with lesson plans,
Slow (60 bpm) and fast (80bpm) backing tracks.
The Little Jammers Simplified Base Curriculum is a one-time price of $300. Membership is required to purchase the Simplified Based Curriculum.
