These are ideal for revision, homework and cover work to ensure understanding of these set works.
The final 2 will follow soon.

A scheme of learning based on the Edexcel GCSE Music set work ‘Music for a While’ by Purcell. These worksheets are based on Flip learning - students do the work at home/independently (this could be to learn the piece or as a revision tool). They then are tested on their knowledge and their score dictates whether they need extra support from the teacher.
The set work is split into 4 sections. Each worksheet has differentiated success criteria and all key words are underlined. There is then a test which summarises each section which can be used as a starter or plenary activity and should then dictate whether students know the set work or not. THere is an answer sheet for each question.
Following this activity students should also have a fully annotated Purcell score.
Cards for performing, composing and appraising which can be used by students at KS2 and 3 to further stretch and challenge them in lessons.
Usually printed on 3 different coloured cards, they can be selected by students when completing any work and they should be able to link the extra challenge to what they are completing.
A pack of 4 sheets which describe each section of the Eduqas GCSE Set Work Since You Been Gone. All features of the set works are included so students can annotate their scores. There is also a short test (with answers) to be completed after each sheet is completed so you can test their understanding.
Each sheet has graded success criteria as well as extra tasks e.g. notating chord patterns to ensure students can apply their knowledge.
Cards linking to listening, appraising or understanding music which can be used to push the best students when completing a task.
They should select a card (which are general so can suit any scheme of work) and complete it on the graffiti sheet provided.
Often this makes students think differently or makes them extend their other musical skills other than simply performance or composition.
