Describing music help sheet/writing frame
I have created this help sheet to use with Ks3 but it can be adapted and used with Ks4. I found my classes were struggling to really describe the music in sentences so I created this flow chart as a writing frame to help them listen to individual instruments and write about what they are doing in the music as well as referring to musical devices and the elements of the music. Hope you find it useful.
