Hip-Hop/Ground Bass (KS3)

This is a scheme of work I use with year 8 (although it could be any KS3 cohort) to introduce them to a DAW, in this case FL studio although it could be adapted for any DAW. It requires students to write a Hip-Hop song using Pachelbel’s canon bass line as a starting point in pairs with the key musical terminology being Ground Bass and Ostinato. Any stars within the PowerPoint have a link to a video attached.

This scheme of work is currently being taught to year 9 students. The scheme of work focuses on horror music and ways of creating tension in music. This project also introduces students to Sibelius for the first time, with the main project being scoring the music to a clip from the woman in black. All clips/videos should be embedded within the powerpoint, a cue sheet for the clip is also attached.

This scheme of work is currently being taught to year 9 students although I have taught it with year 8 at a different school. The scheme of work aims to explore different genres of music including different musical devices before the main project which involves the sound being removed from four different clips (of each genre) and asking students in groups to come up with the music to accompany it. The embedded videos link to my private YouTube channel and are not able to be found without the link. Should the embedding not work, I have also attached links within the stars
