We all have times when we have to cancel a choir practice! If you need alternative written work for your choir, vocal group, a cappella club or any other singing ensemble, this is a research and analysis task which is ready to print and go, and can even be left with a non-specialist teacher!

Your choir members will study their sheet music for a piece they are singing, and answer a series of questions designed to deepen their knowledge of the piece, understand its background, and improve their singing of their part. Students work alone, at their own pace, and independently of the teacher. These worksheets will take most students two lessons (assuming 50-60 minute lessons) but could be repeated for other pieces if you need it to last longer. An extension task is even included for fast finishers. The 50+ questions are split into 9 headings such as “First Glance”, “Rhythm and Tempo”, “Lyrics” and “Ensemble Singing”. You can customise the task by asking pupils to complete only certain sections, or use it as homework with one section to complete every week. Questions range from simple, one-word answers (such as naming the composer, key signature etc) to longer and more involved activities (such as notating a rhythm they find difficult and creating a word or phrase to match the rhythm). We all have situations where we have to cancel a choir practice and I am sure you your students to complete meaningful, enriching work which will actually improve their singing!

Looking to make musicianship lessons more interactive and engaging? This aural skills game is perfect for introducing melodic and rhythmic dictation to older beginners! With 45 questions, reusable boards, and a PowerPoint with audio clips and answers, it’s a versatile, multi-use solution your students will enjoy! What’s included? Printable reusable game boards (double-sided: melody and rhythm) PowerPoint file with 45 audio questions and answers Instructions for teachers and students Terms of Use Tell me more! This resource transforms your aural skills lessons into a hands-on, engaging experience. Students listen to audio clips and match melodies, rhythms, or intervals on their reusable boards. The activity is progressively challenging, with three rounds of questions that build skills week by week. You can also create your own questions by clapping or playing the piano, so once your students know the game and boards, you can continue to use them far beyond the basics! Perfect for older beginners but easily adaptable for any age group, it caters to diverse learners, including tactile and sensory students. Use buttons, counters, dry-wipe markers, or even modeling clay to customize the experience! Students love the interactive and tactile elements. It’s a versatile tool for individual practice, group activities, or even competitions. Many rhythm games and rhythm exercises are simple clapping activities and I find my secondary-aged students find this childish, boring and not challenging. Beginning ear training and musicianship skills can be intimidating for students and a challenge for teachers. This resource turns it into a game – colourful, interactive and hands-on. I recommend using it in short bursts and integrating it regularly into your lessons. Love this resource? Check out my store for more fun solutions for your music classroom.

I originally arranged this piece to be a fun technique exercise for my vocal group to work on after concert season – but it proved to be such a hit we included it in the next show! This is a short, snappy arrangement of the Scott Joplin favourite, Maple Leaf Rag. What it lacks in length (around 30 seconds!) it more than makes up for with content – your choir will work on their pitch, chromatic intervals, syncopation, dynamic contrast and more! If your choir find the soprano 1 part too difficult, it could be played on an instrument with the choir providing the accompaniment through the other parts. Once the choir knows it well, it can be used as a really fun warm-up exercise too!
