The first of 6 diverse units of work covering a range of topics will be introduced at this session. This unit consists of lesson plans and resources for EYFS and years 1-6 for a half term. The units are being trialled in schools with input and feedback from pupils. The resources contain

• A curriculum map of expectations by the end each unit

• Planning for progression in musical skills, knowledge and understanding

• Lesson plans with clear learning objectives and assessment strategies

• Resources with embedded sound files/weblinks where appropriate

• Listening activities, performance and composition tasks

• Video clips of the materials being used with pupils

• Very clear guides for teachers and pupils on how to use ICT (from how to plug in a microphone to editing and manipulating sound files)

• Weblinks – links to resources sites for music teachers

Course participants will be able to take away on CD/memory stick a copy of the lesson materials, presentations and music resources for you to trial and adapt for use in your school.
