Incoming! Incoming! Look out below! It's that time of year again - the big old oak trees are shedding their acorns all over the forest floor. That's what oak trees do. But why? And what happens to the acorns? Reinforce what you have studied in science class when a host of comical nuts and animals take centre stage, complete with festive Brazil nuts, 'sneezing' cashews with a cold, macadamia nuts in grass skirts, 'muscular' chestnuts and much more!

Celebrate the circle of life with this cleverly-written 20-minute musical for primary-age students that features five original songs presented in a variety of musical styles, and rhyming dialogue for cross-curricular learning that will last long after the applause ends! Score BIG points with classroom teachers, administrators and parents! Available: Teacher Edition, Reproducible Pak (vocal lines, lyric sheets, dialogue), Preview CD (with vocals only), Preview Pak (Preview CD and sample pages), Performance/Accompaniment CD, Classroom Kit (Teacher, Repro, P/A CD).
