There's a thread on both schedules and suggested CDs on the PK
board.
One thing I'd suggest, since you're in a parochial school, is
to get God's Children Sing. This is a Preschool music
curriculum, designed for Christian schools, Sunday Schools, and
private teachers, and is well worth the money. There are home
materials which parents can purchase optionally, or just get
the teacher's kit. It will give you the framework for a strong
PK music/movement curriculum which is developmentally
appropriate (much "children's" music is great for listening,
but not for young children to sing.)
