DR SMITH Elements of Music Posters

(1)
This series of nine posters about the Elements of Music is based around the popular acronym DR SMITH. The posters can be used around your department or classroom and are designed to help embed GCSE and A Level tier musical language throughout the wider school. The posters are suitable for display in either Secondary or Primary schools. These could also be used as knowledge organizers or reference sheets for Key Stage 3 and GCSE courses. DR SMITH stands for Dynamics, Rhythm, Structure, Melody (and Metre), Instrumentation, Texture (and Tonality, Timbre and Tempo) and Harmony. Other variations on the acronym have been used but I find these to cover the most important aspects of musical knowledge in the simplest way. Each poster is colour-coded to fit with the acronym DR SMITH. This same colour scheme can be used further up the school in GCSE and A Level analysis.

14 "Elements of Music" Worksheets and Puzzles for Cover, Homework or Revision

Stunning Value! A bumper pack of 14 worksheets (or funsheets) for useful coverwork, homework or revision suitable for KS3 (yrs 7-9), or for checking basic knowledge at the start of a GCSE music course, for those with less musical background. What Does It Do? This resource tests the basics in an informal way and extends and explores knowledge of each of the elements, giving opportunities for students to apply their knowledge in creative ways - great preparation for a variety of composing, performing or listening tasks. ALTERNATIVELY, use this resource with the associated set of Elements Of Music Factsheets to create a totally self-supporting set of 14/28 activities, where no prior knowledge is needed to complete each task (great for cover work where no specialist teacher is available). What's In It? 2 worksheets on each of the Elements - pitch, tempo, timbre, duration, dynamics and texture, plus 2 bonus sheets on The Elements. 14 worksheets in all, as well as teacher notes and suggestions for use. Each worksheet ends with a more open-ended task which ensures that coverwork does not run out before the end of the lesson, but these tasks could also be set as a separate homework task - giving 28 short but meaningful KS3 homework tasks in total - enough for a whole academic year!

KS3 Musical Element - Texture

This is a practical resource meant for keyboard. It uses London’s burning to explore monophonic, homophonic and polyphonic textures. I use this for my Year 7 classes and allows for differentiation i.e. lower ability take the monophonic version and play in octaves, middle ability takes the homophonic and introduces chords and higher ability takes polyphonic. Letters of notes haven’t been written in to add an element of notation reading as a starter but you can easily add this yourself and then photocopy! Enjoy!

This a powerpoint I made to go through the elements of music. It was specifically relating to the song Stand by Me and I used the website Edpuzzle to create a video where students would listen to the song with me interjecting to ask question, to see what elements of music they could identify. Edpuzzle is great because rather than trying to stop a video in class, you can already had it all recorded and ready to go. Here is the link for the video. https://edpuzzle.com/assignments/5802501d153f14e63ea617ee/watch
