HSC Music 1 'Focus on the Question' Pitch Materials lesson

This HSC Music 1 Aural lesson, with online listening activities, may be used as a stand-alone Year 12 revision lesson (also useful for relief lesson) or take the opportunity to work one-on-one with your Preliminary students as they work to deepen their understanding of the music concepts. The recorded music clips are included. Pass the lesson around on a usb for lap top use, or present on screen.

Guided focus questions differentiate the activity to reinforce their listening practise.
