We do a project like this with year 8 over a term but an interesting way to present it over long term evermoonmusicstudio.com/ks3-…

One Note users! Is there a way to stagger the distribution of information on a page to students. So send half the page first then the other half after they have completed the first part? Even to different students at different times

#ibdp music project right here!
The misconception that there is no sound in space originates because most space is a ~vacuum, providing no way for sound waves to travel. A galaxy cluster has so much gas that we've picked up actual sound. Here it's amplified, and mixed with other data, to hear a black hole!

Survived taking a 10 week old on the plane for their first trip to Wales 🏴 to meet the family.
Looking forward to the final term back in Dubai 🇦🇪. Adding more and more exciting things to the department events.

What a great week last week was in school for musical performances. GCSE performances and Spring fayre and I couldn’t be there for any of them 😞. Bloody Covid!!

Really like this idea! Students sometimes over complicate focussing on the instrumentation. These are the building blocks!

Remote learning is tough but a year 5 student sending in a video playing guitar to “Friday I’m in love” really perked up my day and week! I’ll be honest, we wouldn’t have done a task like this in class so great to find these gems. Song is very suited for today in UAE!
Lots of things I agree with here.
. The importance of a strong KS3 curriculum
. Recognising knowledge AND skills
. Teaching music as ‘concepts’ and linking to works and building in previous work to allow students to explore further
'The one thing we can do to advocate strongly and meaningfully for music... is to make the music in music education of the highest quality.'

Winter break can officially start for our music department team after our final concert last night! A full on but rewarding week of performances (choirs, production, instrumental ensembles!). It’s been a great term and looking forward to the next (after a break!)
