School Assemblies for Preschools and Elementary Schools


MR. JEFF 

SCHOOL ASSEMBLIES! 

High-Energy, Interactive Music Experiences That Build Character, Confidence, and Community!

Music That Moves Kids.

Messages That Stick.


Mr. Jeff's school assemblies combine live original music, movement, optional interactive video, humor, and social-emotional learning into a high-energy experience designed to get students actively participating, learning, and having FUN!

At the heart of every program is Character and Confidence Building, with songs that give kids simple, meaningful messages they can carry with them: be kind, have patience, keep trying, show up, work hard, stay curious, make good choices, and remember that you are enough.

Rather than simply watching a performance, students are encouraged to sing, move, respond, laugh, think out loud, and ROCK OUT together! Through interactive activities, audience participation, storytelling, and plenty of Mr. Jeff's signature silliness, students explore important life lessons in a way that feels less like an assembly and more like a CONCERT!

Each program is designed to reinforce age-appropriate social-emotional skills, inspire confidence, and create a shared experience that students and teachers can carry with them long after the music stops.

Three unique assembly programs are available, tailored to the ages and developmental needs of your students.

Need something custom based on your own SEL, PIBS, Character building, Seasonal, Holiday or School Directives, I’d happily make a Custom Assembly for you. Just ASK!


WONDERFUL WONDERFUL WONDERFUL

Preschool – Early Elementary

A joyful, high-energy, movement-filled introduction to the Mr. Jeff experience designed especially for younger learners.

Wonderful Wonderful Wonderful introduces young students to the magic of making music together through original songs, imaginative play, movement, bubbles, puppets, interactive activities, and plenty of silliness to keep kids engaged from beginning to end

Students are encouraged to move their bodies, use their imaginations, express themselves, practice listening skills, and build confidence while participating in an exciting, age-appropriate musical experience.

Created by a former preschool teacher, this program supports early childhood development, social-emotional learning, and learning through play, all while keeping FUN at the center of everything!

Great for: Preschools, Pre-K, Kindergarten, and early elementary audiences.

Program themes: Movement • Imagination • Confidence • Self-expression • Social-emotional development • Learning through play


BIG KID STUFF

Elementary School

A high-energy, interactive concert and motivational assembly about growing up, believing in yourself, and doing hard things!

Big Kid Stuff combines original music, audience participation, movement, silliness, humor, and optional interactive media with positive messages about what it means to grow, learn, and become more confident in who you are.

Through songs, storytelling and interactive conversations, students explore ideas including perseverance, resilience, creativity, positive self-talk, individuality, and the importance of trying new things, even when they’re difficult. 

Students are encouraged to embrace mistakes as opportunities to learn, keep trying when things get tough, celebrate what makes them unique, and understand that growing up doesn't mean having everything figured out.

It's a Confidence and Character Building ROCK CONCERT with something to say.

Great for: Elementary school assemblies and larger groups of school-age students.

Program themes: Perseverance • Resilience • Confidence • Creativity • Positive self-talk • Individuality • Growth mindset



I'VE GOT HEART

Elementary – Middle School

An energetic, music-driven assembly about having heart, making good choices, and showing up for yourself and others!

I've Got Heart explores what it means to move through the world with courage, kindness, patience, perseverance, curiosity, and confidence. 

Through original songs, storytelling, silliness, humor, audience participation, and optional interactive media, students are encouraged to think about how they respond to challenges, mistakes, big feelings, relationships, and everyday choices.

At the center of the program is a simple idea: having heart doesn't mean always getting things right. It means showing up, trying again, caring for yourself and others, and continuing to grow.

Students explore how these ideas apply to real-life situations, from navigating friendships and handling setbacks to making thoughtful choices, managing emotions, and recognizing the importance of treating themselves and others with kindness.

Designed for older students who are ready to explore deeper social-emotional themes, I've Got Heart brings together the energy of a live concert with positive, relatable messages about character, personal growth, and the kind of person you want to become.

Great for: Upper elementary schools, middle schools, character education programs, and SEL-focused assemblies.

Program themes: Courage • Kindness • Patience • Perseverance • Empathy • Self-awareness • Responsibility • Confidence • Motivation



CLASSROOM VISITS

A more personal, interactive musical experience for smaller groups!

For schools looking for something a little more intimate, Mr. Jeff also offers classroom-style musical programs inspired by circle time.

One classroom or several classes can come together for an engaging experience filled with original music, singing, movement, dancing, imaginative play, and plenty of opportunities for students to participate.

The smaller setting allows for more direct interaction, giving students opportunities to respond, ask questions, express themselves, and connect with the music in a meaningful way.

Classroom visits are especially well suited for preschool and early elementary students and can be adapted to the ages, developmental needs, and size of the participating group.


We LOVE to get teachers involved too!

When I started the Mr. Jeff project, the educational component was something I poured so much passion, thought, research, and work into. After years of development and experience in the field, I’m finally ready to share it in a big way.

I’m THRILLED to “headline” the Inspired Early Childhood Educators Symposium in Akron with my brand new Ohio Approved professional development training:

Wonderful Play! Using Music to Support Early Childhood Development

This is an interactive, fun, and very much NOT boring PD experience designed to help educators and librarians use music to support learning through play.

Huge thanks to the Akron-Summit County Public Library and Early Childhood Resource Center for believing in this vision, helping me bring it to life, and supporting me every step of the way. So so so grateful.

I’m excited to bring this training to more schools, districts, libraries, and early childhood professionals across Ohio and beyond this fall and winter!

Let’s grow together, learn together, take the world and we'll make it our place.
