This resource pack comprises 10 Crossword Puzzles based on general musical knowledge, and they are designed for Years 7 to 9, but can also be used as revision for GCSE/ BTEC music students. Each puzzle has 15 clues to solve and it is expected that students will take between 10 and 15 minutes to complete each one. As such, they work well on an individual basis as Starters, homework tasks, or revision, and can even be used in combination to fill up to 2 complete cover lessons.

Each puzzle has 15 clues, and each clue falls into one of 15 areas: Composers; Countries; Techniques/ Technology; Chords/ Scales; Instruments; Structure/ Form; Genre/ Style; Keys; Tempos; Dynamics/ Articulation; Signs and Symbols; Broadway Musicals; History of Pop Music Singers and Groups; Elements and Eras; Music Theory ‘pot luck’. Since each puzzle contains one clue from each of these 15 areas, they are truly balanced and broad-ranging, making each one great for testing general musical knowledge – not to mention fun!

A full set of answers are provided so that students can self-mark and correct – especially important if you use the activities for cover as you will not want to return to a pile of marking! Feel free to allow students to use the internet to research some of the more tricky clues – independent learning is always beneficial to students.

I take great care to ensure my resources are of the highest quality – both in content and in presentation – and I wholeheartedly recommend them to both you and your students. I welcome feedback and enquiries from my colleague-customers all over the world, and I can be contacted directly at rainynightmusic@hotmail.com. I would be delighted to hear from you, and I thank you for considering this resource for your classroom.

Music Worksheets Pack of 50 Bundle

This resource bundle comprises more than 10 hours of activities across 50 Worksheets, designed for Years 7 to 9. The worksheets can be used in a variety of ways, including as starters, homework tasks, tests, revision, and even as games in some cases. Specifically, the contents and topics of the worksheets in this pack are as follows: 10 x worksheets on Staff Notation, where students complete activities based on pitch and writing notes on the bass and treble staves. 10 x worksheets on Rhythm and Metre, where students complete activities based on note lengths and time signatures. 10 x 15-clue crossword puzzles based on general musical knowledge, which is great for revision and cover lessons. 10 x 21-clue word search puzzles based on general musical knowledge, which is great for teaching key words. This pack also has 10 x 1-hour plans for cover lessons based on the themes of the word search! 10 x 25-clue code breaker puzzles based on general musical knowledge, which are great for revision, homework, and just for fun. If you regard clues as questions (which I do!), there are at least 870 questions for students to get stuck into in this pack. When you consider that several of those questions have 2 or more parts, there’s probably over 900, making this an excellent choice for Key Stage 3 Music teachers, especially if you are teaching the subject for the first time. As always, I take great care to ensure my resources are of the highest quality – both in content and in presentation – and I wholeheartedly recommend them to both you and your students. I welcome feedback and enquiries from my colleague-customers all over the world, and I can be contacted directly at rainynightmusic@hotmail.com. I would be delighted to hear from you, and I thank you for considering this resource for your classroom.
