happyhappyjoyjoy Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 We've fallen in love with memory work on CD with CCM. I bought the CD for FLL, too. I'm now keeping my eye out for any memory work on CD, so I could put them in a playlist with our other weekly memory work. For example, I was disappointed that the FLL CD doesn't have the definitions of nouns, and verbs from Level 1. This would have been great to review in our weekly memory work. I'd love to hear about your favorites, especially with grammar. Does anoyone sell tracks on itunes or amazon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkermamaof4 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Just a thought/warning - I don't know if you'd have the tendency to jump the gun like I have, but just in case: I too got excited about this. I bought anything and everything. Then I got discouraged. My shelves were full of items we need to learn. We go slowly. I felt rushed. I'd recommend just doing a super job with each and buying the next as you finish the ones you have. Keep a list of what to buy next. Also, a lot of good ones are on youtube actually. Today I pulled The Westminster Shorter Catechism Songs off my shelf and loaded cd 1 into iTunes. It is by reformedmusic.com We also bought the Classical Conversations cd for a cycle from someone and do that. And we sing a hymn and a scripture. We chant the states and capitals and presidents. We sometimes do Pudewa's Poetry with his cd. That is it so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a thought/warning - I don't know if you'd have the tendency to jump the gun like I have, but just in case: I too got excited about this. I bought anything and everything. Then I got discouraged. My shelves were full of items we need to learn. This is great advice for ME. Thank you. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of buying up a ton of CDs, I'd love to find where I can download a single track when needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skeeterbug Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Another option would be to record yourself or your dc reciting these things for playback. Cheaper than buying them all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SorrelZG Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Not necessarily favorites but you can buy individual MP3s of Kathy Troxel's memory songs and the Wee Sing memory songs from Amazon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeritasMama Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 A Catholic resource we like to use is the album "The Family Catechism" from The Children of St. Joseph's, I bought it for $9.99 from iTunes. It includes hymns, catechism, prayers, server responses from mass, etc. It is a real gem, there are over 45 tracks that could be used for memory work. I have CCM as well, but I really like to use this to supplement religion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
