What the Single-Class License Offers

1. Classroom Performance Rights (for One Class)

The Single-Class License grants you the right to rehearse and perform the musical with your students as part of your instructional program.

• Rehearse scenes and songs during class or after school
• Perform in your classroom, cafeteria, gym, or auditorium
• Invite families, other classes, and administrators to attend
• Repeat the performance during the same school year if desired

Classroom example

A 4th-grade teacher uses the musical as the capstone to their Massachusetts history unit. Students perform once for families at night and again the next week for the 3rd-grade classes— both performances are fully covered by this license.

2. Complete Teaching & Learning Materials

Your license includes the full teaching package so you can weave history, literacy, and music together in one integrated experience:

• Full script for Rockin’ – The Secrets of Plymouth Rock
• All 12 songs (vocal tracks and instrumental/backing tracks)
• Teacher Guide with ideas for pacing, staging, and classroom use
• Student Activity Booklet (reading, writing, and creative responses)
• History Units with short readings, discussion questions, and worksheets
• Printable lyrics and practice pages

Classroom example

Over a 4–6 week unit, students read short passages about Plymouth Rock and the Wampanoag/Patuxet people, discuss what they’ve learned, complete timelines and maps, and then bring it all to life on stage through scenes and songs.

3. Rehearsal & Performance Audio Use

You may freely use the included audio tracks with your class for:

• Daily rehearsal in the classroom or music room
• Small-group practice and solo coaching
• Full-cast run-throughs before the big performance
• Playback during your final show if you’re not using live musicians

Classroom example

The teacher creates a simple playlist of the backing tracks and shares it on a secure classroom platform (like Google Classroom or a password-protected school LMS) so students can practice at home with their families listening along.

4. Printing & Photocopying Rights (Within One Class)

The Single-Class License also grants permission to print and copy materials for your class for the licensed school year:

• Print the script for each student who needs a role or reading part
• Print lyrics sheets for rehearsals and take-home practice
• Photocopy worksheets, maps, and vocabulary pages from the History Units
• Print teacher copies, stage manager copies, and a master reference script

Classroom example

A teacher prints one full script per student, plus two extra copies for a counselor and a reading specialist helping with rehearsals. Later, they print a “cue-only” script just for the student running sound and music.

5. Teacher-Centered Flexibility

Every classroom is different. The Single-Class License is intentionally flexible so you can adapt it to your students, schedule, and space:

• Stage a full musical performance, or a “mini-showcase” of selected songs and scenes
• Use the songs as a music/literacy extension to your social studies unit
• Assign speaking roles, shared narrators, or whole-class chorus parts
• Stretch the project across several weeks or condense it into a shorter unit

Classroom example

In a smaller class, the teacher uses the show as a “reader’s theater musical”: some students read narration, while the whole class sings each song together on the risers.

6. Family- and School-Community Friendly

The Single-Class License is designed with real school communities in mind. You are welcome to:

• Invite families, administrators, and other classes to attend the performance
• Share short video clips or photos internally within the school community
• Highlight your students’ work in a school newsletter or on a password-protected class page

Classroom example

A teacher records a brief highlight reel of the dress rehearsal and plays it during morning announcements so the school can cheer on the performers.

7. What the Single-Class License Does Not Include

To keep things clear and fair, here’s what is outside the scope of the Single-Class License:

• Use by multiple teachers or multiple classrooms at the same school
• Use across an entire grade level, school, or district
• Ticketed or revenue-generating performances
• Public streaming or posting the full show on YouTube, Facebook, etc.

If you’d like to expand your use beyond a single classroom, you can upgrade to a School or District License so everyone is covered.

8. Is the Single-Class License Right for You?

The Single-Class License is a great fit if:

• You are one teacher
• You’re working with one class
• You want a rich, arts-integrated history unit
• You’re planning a classroom or small-stage performance
• You don’t need school-wide or district-wide rights (yet)

If that sounds like you, you can move straight to checkout and start planning your unit and performance with your students.
