A collection of worksheets based around the names of different musical instruments. A range of activities and skills included in the worksheets including: Wordsearch Times table problems Unscrambling words Solving riddles Matching activity Identifying instruments by their image Acrostic poems This worksheet collection could serve multiple lessons on musical instruments. Individual worksheets would work well as starter or plenary activities to either summarise learning, or remind students of what they learned previously, but they could also be used as consolidation activities within lessons after teaching. The worksheet collection could also be used as an independent / paired activity where children could receive all the sheets in a booklet and work through them at their own pace. Answers provided on separate sheets for all activities where appropriate.

A bundle of PDF documents containing information for each A Level Set Work, as examined in 2018, for Edexcel. The documents go through background and contextual information for the composer and piece plus detailed information about the pieces themselves included bar numbers. For each piece, there is a detailed overview that goes through key points about the piece chronologically, followed by a summary section providing information about the melody, harmony, tempo, texture, structure, tonality, instrumentation, timbre etc for. The resource would be a revision resource for students, but it could also be used for teaching - as a way of delivering the key information needed for students to have a good understanding of each piece.

**Lesson three in a series of six lessons on musical instruments and instrumental families. Lesson three is on The Brass Family. This lesson forms part of a series designed to teach children about musical instruments and instrumental families without the need for music resources or specialist musical knowledge. The lessons are designed to be accessible to students from all musical backgrounds. Although the lesson does form part of a series, it can also be used a stand-alone lesson on brass instrument and does not need to be used in conjunction with other lessons in the series. This lesson pack contains a presentation and 6 worksheets. Presentation The presentation is best used to teach students about the brass family. The lesson presentation is structured as follows: overview of instrument families overview of the brass family - key instruments, common features etc. Deeper look at the trumpet Deeper look at the trombone Deeper look at the french horn Deeper look at the baritone and euphonium Deeper look at the tuba Comparison of brass instruments Three activities The presentation finishes with three different activity suggestions to consolidate knowledge. The presentation includes questions and short activities throughout to allow students to take an active part in their learning. The presentation is long enough and detailed enough that it could be separated across two lessons for lower ability learners. If this is the case, I would suggest splitting into two lessons, starting the second lesson with the comparisons between instruments. Worksheets The lesson pack comes with 6 different worksheets, each a different activity as follows: cut and stick wordsearch times table sheet unscramble activity fact file writing activity true or false quiz All worksheets except the fact file writing worksheet would make excellent starter or plenary activities to frame the lesson.
