To help students with their aural skills, I have made a worksheet for students to focus on four elements. Texture, dynamics, tempo, and instruments.
I use this grid system for students to help them focus and listen to music outside of a question or exam paper.
This is suitable for any music class: Junior Cycle, Leaving Cert and general music appreciation

This involves an info-graphic and three worksheets: an exercise, a place to write definitions, and a quiz.
This is great for students to learn the elements of music and to become familiar with these key words.

This is a worksheet aimed at looking at how music plays a role in film/tv. Music has the power to change how a viewer perceives a movie, therefore students can have some fun with the short film ‘Piper’ (which can be found on Disney+).
Youtube also has great music to use alongside changing the mood of music, or students can pick a song to change the mood. Simply mute the ‘Piper’ video and play a different song in the background.
This worksheet includes questions about:
The role music has on mood in films
How changing the music in a film can change the story
Section to create a graphic score
This booklet was created to replicate the process of creating music for film. To begin with this booklet, the teacher/educator will begin by selecting a scene from a film to work on throughout this task.
Included in this booklet
Test Screening Evaluation (here students act as the audience to gain a perspective of the scene, although not music specific, it gives students an audience perspective before they become the composer)
Score Spotting list (here students will watch the scene without any sound)
How to compose a score (students will start to work on their plan)
4.**** Composing a score**** (here students use their plan to create music, I advise to use musecore, bandlab or allowing students to compose using instruments)
Enjoy!
