This a 6 page document with 1 rule for each letter in the word 'MUSIC'. The 6th page has all the rules listed on 1 page so you can print them off on one page if you prefer. I my early years area I have the 5 posters up, and in the elementary/older primary I just have the 1 poster with all the rules listed. They are bright addition to your classroom and a great visual reminder to the students of what is acceptable. Enjoy!

A simple but fun Composer Scavenger Hunt, where students practice their research skills to find information about composers. This is a great introductory activity for a unit on famous composers, or simply as a fun activity to leave for a relief teacher. Included are 2 hunts (no overlapping questions), and each hunt is provided in colour as well as black and white (for printing). I did this with my students during online learning, but it could easily be printed off and used just as easily face-to

THE MUSIC OLYMPICS!!! Can be completed during Online AND/OR Face-to-Face Learning! Use during Olympics, ParaOlympics, Commonwealth Games, or just for fun! There are different musical categories and events, a whole primary school option, and an early years option, and a combination of simple and open ended tasks. For some of the tasks that may need additional explanation or a selected play list, there are tasks underlined that link you to youtube videos that do this! The idea is that students sel

Musical Yahtzee! Just like the original, but with music notes. Students can use a dice template to make their own rhythm dice. There are 2 score sheets and instructions for game play. The first game sheet has 2 sections, just like the original YAHTZEE. The second I would use with younger students, or students playing yahtzee for the first time. This score sheet only includes the first section of the full version and a space underneath to use for working out the addition of points. This game is a

These FANTASTIC rhythm note value LEGO cards are amazing for busy early years learners. These cards can be used at music centres / learning stations, to help students differentiate between music notes and their values. I created these using the official LEGO Digital Designer for use in my own classroom. They are certainly a hit! The reason for adding in a za, was because the traditional notation is very tricky to match in real life, let alone lego! However, a traditional crotchet rest is include

This 'Over in Australia' resource, does NOT include the story, rather it has resources developed specifically to accompany the book and song.

Use this PDF to create a rewards catalogue for students to look through and see what rewards they could choose when their behavior is great! They can then take a corresponding ticket to be used at some point that day (or at the end of the lesson if you are a specialist)! This system offers FREE rewards to compliment the behavior management systems you already have in place, whether it's names on the board, raffles, or any other method. Students have loved these rewards, and enjoy cashing in thei

These iPad rules are tailored as reminders for middle school students. They are helpful for students from grades 3 - year 8, as they serve as a visual reminder with icons they appreciate! You may not use every rule as a poster for your class, there are some that I use mainly for younger year levels (such as using both hands). Rules include: - You need access to garageband (helpful for music teachers) - You need access to our regular apps - Your ipad needs to be charged - Put ipads in the tub whe

Also included, is a black and white set of the lyrics and a border for the students to add their own illustrations to (o

This small bee vocal exploration acts as a mini lesson, or can be used as part of a unit on teaching high and low pitches. If using as a minilesson, have the students practice making the shapes on each page with their voice. Have students come up and draw some shapes on the whiteboard at the front, and then have students go off to create their own vocal line. There is even an option to create a class book! With the option for either printing in colour or B & W, there are 11 vocal exercises (that

This product focuses on 5 string instruments other than the 4 main ones found in an orchestra (violin, viola, cello, bass). I found SO many resources for those, but also wanted to introduce my students to other string instruments, so created a resource for their online learning that focuses on these instruments: - Harp - Banjo - Khim - Bandura - Erhu There is one slide on each instrument, with a couple of brief facts, and links to youtube videos for students to listen to and learn about each ins

Relationship building over zoom is tough. Whether you are a youth leader, a secondary teacher, or need some fun games to play with friends/family over a video call, this is FAB! It was a real winner with the age groups I played with (years 7-9), but could easily work for younger or older students too. I have uploaded what I created - 2 games (2 parts) of 10minutes each. It is a powerpoint that is editable, so you can adjust any of list items, and delete points if you'd prefer not to use them! HA
