A quiz covering the set works by Weelkes, Haydn, Stravinsky, Perkins and Beatles plus some key terms. This is not fully complete as there is an audio section (finding the videos on Youtube) as well as a visual music extract section; I planned to add in a few random bars (in sequence) of a part of each set work for pupils to recognise. This can be easily edited, added to etc. Any feedback would be great, thanks!

Useful for putting landmarks on the vocal set works (Weelkes, Handel, Stravinsky, Beatles and Carl Perkins).

Lots more terms that can be added. Please leave a comment if you have any thoughts on this, thanks!

A bizarre list of words that describes things that we would normally call a 'thingamajig&' e.g. creating the shape of a bowl with your hands is called a &';gowpen', the moment when you realise what you should&'ve said in a conversation is 'l&';esprit d'escalier' and &'phosphenes&'; are the swirling lights you see when you rub your eyes. There are lots of other words there that students can choose which is the correct definition. A fun form time and PSHE filler!
