Used as a plenary for a short performing styles unit based on Blues, Reggae and Acoustic music. Students work out the style of music from the description, for example, this music originated from the Carribean - Reggae. Can be used to tack on other styles of music to edit it into a bigger scale activity for KS4. Any feedback would be great, thanks!

Based on using Sibelius on iMacs. Ignore first page as it fits our current set up at school. Includes functions such as adding comments, adding in second voices, seeing one part at a time and staff size as well as (iMac-related) shortcuts all of which can be done for PC by changing the 'cmd&' button to &';control' button. Any feedback would be great, thanks!

Each document is a list of musical checkpoints in each piece for the 2012 exam. Students can cut these out, stick them on a photocopied score or they can be cut up even further and students have to work out to which piece they belong. Easily adaptable for the needs of your pupils. Any feedback would be great, thanks!

If this is the answer what is the question? An answer is provided for the students e.g. E major and they have to work out the potential questions, of which there can be more than one question per answer. E major = final chord of the Beatles, key of the Perkins, key of the arpeggio sections in the piano/woodwind in the Stravinsky, key of the McCartney's verse, dominant of Haydn&'s song etc. Answers are not written on as it gives students the opportunity to show you and prove their answer is correct. Not an exhaustive list of answers! Any feedback would be great, thanks!

Can be used to print - cut out - laminate - write names of instruments on back of the instruments to be used as a starter/plenary: identify the instruments, instrument 'snap&', pictionary, hangman etc.

Match the key facts about the composer to the composer - e.g. 'Born in 1944&', &';Composed around 80 songs' and &'This piece can be described as an anthem&'; as well as specific features from the pieces - e.g. 'ABC structure&', &';Tierce de Picardie' and &'Two part writing section is homorhythmic&'; Feedback would be great, thanks!

Students can compose a piece based on rhythms - basic introduction to composition. Students can apply different rhythms, rests, ostinati and structure. Any feedback would be great, thanks!

Questions in the 1 point list are the easier questions, 3 points are slightly harder and the 5 points are pretty tricky. Students choose which question they answer, write it down, check with teacher and move onto another question. Teacher holds all revision guides and anthologies so if a student doesn't know the answer they can ask. The teacher will show them the answer but they forfeit points. Useful for independent learning and self-differentiation. Could also be used as a research task for students. Easily adaptable to the needs of your pupils. Any feedback would be great, thanks!
