Classical Music SOW
A 10 week scheme of work which is fully differentiated. It focuses on 6 western classical composers and encourages students to perform famous motifs as well as using these pieces as a stimulus to compose their own pieces. Glossaries and a end of unit listening test with answers is also available as well as a tracking sheet where students can keep a track of all tasks they have completed and at what level.
Developing music - A level and GCSE composition
Differentiated resources which aid students in developing the harmony, rhythm, melody and texture of an original idea. Each set of resources was originally used over 3 lessons with a sixth form class but could also be used with GCSE students. Students must firstly define development methods for each of harmony, rhythm, melody and texture (definitions provided). They must then identify how this looks by using musical examples. The gold task then asks students to apply at least one method to their own composition. All worksheets are in word so they can be further adapted in order to differentiate for your students. An overall list of development methods is also provided to be used either as a quick test or a summary.
