How do you harness all the opinions your students have about music they listen to in a way that encourages use of music-specific vocabulary? Have your middle and high school students think more deeply about the music they listen to. This activity takes it beyond "I like...," "I don't like..." and really causes them to think about why they think they way they think about music. You can use this worksheet for any song! Enjoy and let me know what you think!

This is a dynamics quiz/exam that requires students to identify the dynamics symbol, the Italian term, and also identify it within the context of a musical score. I hope it's helpful for you!
