Early Years & Primary Music Curriculum Planning, Progression & Assessment Toolkit EYFS KS1 KS2

“This is such an excellent resource and well worth the money! It contains an extremely thorough progression chart which includes progression in dimensions; musical skills such as singing or notation; and other musical knowledge including historical knowledge or world music. The individual and class assessment sheets are very useful and easily adaptable to suit your own needs. The brainstorming charts for planning are also very helpful in sparking ideas to help you create a really solid unit of work. Thanks so much for a great resource!” Becca, Primary Music Teacher, TES This resource will help primary school music co-ordinators and music specialists who are required to plan a whole school music curriculum based on the current Primary National Curriculum for Music and Early Years Foundation Stage Framework. It is NOT a scheme of work, but a simply-worded (yet comprehensive) overview of what musical learning should take place from Nursery (3s) to Year 6 (11s). Plus there are useful long, medium and short term planning templates, and a music-through-topics brainstorming sheet, all with example content, for you to use. ‘Dimensions of Music’, ‘Musical Skills’ and ‘Other Musical Knowledge’ are broken down into statements which can be used in several ways: * i) to help you map out and plan ‘what’ should be taught in each year group * ii) to help you plan an assessment system for your school or class (i.e. most statements can be prefixed with ‘…is not yet able to…’ ‘…is able to…’ ‘…is confidently able to…’ or with ‘I can…’) * iii) to help you when it comes to writing statements for end of year reports. This resource is designed to be adaptable for all planning and assessment approaches in schools, and documents are in editable Word or Excel format. I hope this Toolkit saves you reinventing the ‘music planning wheel’ from scratch. It should, at least, give you a very good start!
