All GCSE music specifications require students to have a comprehensive knowledge of a variety of different melodic devices, with many courses requiring students to be able to demonstrate this knowledge in both composition coursework and in the appraising exam.<br /> <br /> This pack of 8 worksheets introduces a wide range of these devices, and includes two short composition tasks that give students an opportunity to practice using these devices before beginning their composition coursework or while preparing for the exam. Each of the worksheets that introduce new keywords come in two variants: one that has the definitions already provided, giving a useful reference or revision sheet; and one that provides a blank space for the student to write a definition for themselves. Where appropriate, each keyword is accompanied by a short musical example.<br /> <br /> Here is a breakdown of each worksheet:<br /> – Worksheet 1.1: An introduction to a range of melodic devices with definitions provided;<br /> – Worksheet 1.2: An introduction to a range of melodic devices with space for students to research and write their own definition;<br /> – Worksheet 1.3: A follow-up composition task, using the melodic devices covered in Worksheets 1.1 and 1.2;<br /> – Worksheet 2.1: An introduction to a range of melodic devices with specific focus on devices that can be used in motivic development;<br /> – Worksheet 2.1: An introduction to a range of melodic devices with specific focus on devices that can be used in motivic development, with definitions provided;<br /> – Worksheet 2.2: An introduction to a range of melodic devices with specific focus on devices that can be used in motivic development, with space for students to research and write their own definition;<br /> – Worksheet 2.3: A follow-up composition task, using the melodic devices covered in Worksheets 2.1 and 2.2;<br /> – Worksheet 3.1: Introduction to a range of additional melodic keywords not previously covered, with definitions provided;<br /> – Worksheet 3.2: Introduction to a range of additional melodic keywords not previously covered, with space for students to research and write their own definition.<br /> <br /> Previews of the first page of each worksheet are available from the files list.<br /> <br /> Throughout the worksheets, the following keywords are covered: Conjunct, disjunct, scalic, triadic, passing note, broken chord, ornament, trill, acciaccatura, appoggiatura, sequence, augmentation, diminution, retrograde, glissando, melisma, blue notes, diatonic, chromatic, riff, ostinato, inversion, hook, articulation, improvisation, legato, staccato, and marcato.<br /> <br /> It is the responsibility of the teacher to check this coverage of keywords against the exam board specification, this worksheet pack does not intend to offer complete coverage for all specifications.<br /> <br /> Please leave a review if you like this resource!

<p>This is a large list of effects and the definitions required to know for A level music technology.</p> <p>There 3 sides of A4 worth of effects, with subheadings which included variations.</p> <p>Ideal for revision or class quizzing</p>

<p>This project will work perfectly for KS3 &amp; KS4 music classes or as a cover work project.</p> <p>The idea is that students listen to different genres of ‘popular’ music, select their genre and complete a series of tasks. Students can work independently, in pairs or small groups on this task. It can be completed using a variety of different technology - depending on what you have available in your school. You can also swap, omit or add slides to meet the needs of your students and the equipment available in your classroom.</p> <p>The powerpoint has 24 slides. Included are the tasks, a listening exercise with YouTube links, example band logos, example album covers and example merchandise.</p> <p>The task is to be a band manager and students are to create the following:</p> <p>A band name, logo and names of band members<br /> To decide on what style or genre of popular music will be performed<br /> What instruments the band will play<br /> Create an album of 8 songs (covers or originals) and decide which one is going to be released as the first single<br /> Design merchandise for selling on tour. T-Shirts, posters, cups, calendars, etc.</p> <p>There are two practical extension tasks in the advice for teachers slide.</p> <p>The project should last between 3 - 5 lessons depending on how many tasks you include. It links perfectly with the middle school / KS3 music curriculum Year 3 Term 1 module that is for sale on this page.</p>

<p>This is a great way to introduce pupils to Music Technology through a Soundscape task. Pupils can use the free software Soundtrap on their computers or laptops (and on phones if needed!). I use this task for S1 pupils (aged 12) but this could be used for pupils aged 10-14.</p>

<p>11 standalone resources comprising a whole unit on the topic of technology, music, TV and free time activities. These resources will support pupils to talk about what they use their phone/tablet for, music and TV preferences and what they did in their free time yesterday.</p> <p>These are standalone resources which could also accompany Unit 2 (Todo sobre mi vida) in Viva.</p> <p>Resource 1: ¿Qué haces con tu móvil?<br /> Resource 2: Mi vida, mi móvil<br /> Resource 3: ¿Qué tipo de música te gusta?<br /> Resource 4: A mi amigo le gusta el rap<br /> Resource 5: Worksheet revising technology &amp; music preferences<br /> Resource 6: Prefiero las comedias<br /> Resource 7: Me gustan los realitys<br /> Resource 8: TV programmes - opinions and comparisons<br /> Resource 9: ¿Qué hiciste ayer? - past tense verb<br /> Resource 10: Revision of this unit: technology, music &amp; TV opinions, past tense<br /> Resource 11: A translation speaking game to revise this topic</p> <p>Format: Word document and PDF with answers.</p>
