<p>A small scheme of work on the topic of Pop Ballads.

<p>A powerpoint with 4 lessons of the concerto through time topic for the OCR GCSE syllabus. Please note some of the example questions I refer to are from the Rhinegold book ‘Listening Tests’ which contains 3 sample papers . You will need your own copy of that book to access these questions as I won’t write them in here for copyright reasons. However this resource is usable without those questions.</p>

First lesson for year 10: an introduction to programme music. AoS4 for OCR GCSE exam board.

This lesson is on Danse Macabre by Saint Saens. I adapted a fantastic worksheet I found on here from another user to create two worksheets which are differentiated. The harder one requires more complicated answers while the easier one has prompts on to support weaker students.

<p>Second lesson in programme music for year 10. This involves a composition activity and an evaluation.</p>
