KS3 Music Rap and Ostinato SoW

A short KS3 Music scheme of work based on Rap music and Ostinato. There are a variety of listening tasks and and small tasks to develop rapping skills as well as ostinato composition, leading up to a final rap composition in which they have written their own rap and ostinato. This was developed for a classroom only with keyboards but could be further adapted for music tech.

KS3 Music Student Booklet

KS3 Music Student Booklet

(1)
This is a booklet that I made to accompany our SoW for year 7 and 8. Ofsted were happy with it, as were SLT (as were we) as it allowed for quick tracking and feedback without taking time away from practical music making. I’ve left in our schemes of work in case anyone can use them to double up, but fully editable otherwise!

This is a resource I made for a summer project for a year 9 class that I have as a ‘transition’ class - they don’t yet do the KS4 qualification but are developing media skills ready to start the course next year. For the final half a term (just over) they are creating a music video for a fun end-of-year topic.

PPT to facilitate a practical SoW based on British Folk music. Some listening skills, keyboard revision, singing and ukulele notes for the chords and improvising in the Dorian mode. Lessons/tasks can be adapted for the level of your class (e.g. more time working on keyboards/singing etc). End performance aims are group performances of the drunken sailor using instrumental improvisation in between sections - my classes have really enjoyed this project and produced some great work.

4-Chord Mashup

(0)
This is a PPT and simple SoW overview for a year 8 four-chord-mashup project based on the axis of awesome 4-chord-song. Groups spend the first lesson/2 lessons singing the short mashup on the board, reminding themselves how to play the 4 chords on keyboard/Ukulele and creating their own performance of that. Then in groups they create their own 4-chord mashup from the songs in the short ‘mashup’ and the ‘other’ list or any others they think of that fit. There is space in the KS3 workbook (other resource) for them to write their songs out
