We recommend that you read through the content entirely before teaching so that you know the intended long term outcome of the lessons. This will allow you to adjust the content for your group effectively to ensure that learning remains high and interest is retained, even if it means reducing the content. At the heart of these lessons we are essentially aiming to give students performance skills and a musical and social awareness that will allow them to make more music in the future by performing with others in a group.
When teaching whole class ensemble playing, it’s important to have high quality instruments that are designed for the classroom, but it’s also vital to have the right teaching support: support that enables you to deliver authentic and engaging World Music lessons, which keep everyone involved and that everyone enjoys. Our teaching support gives you just that and is suitable both for class teachers who have no prior music experience, and for music specialists and includes “how to play” videos showing basic techniques, audio tracks demonstrating the examples and pieces covered, schemes of work and lesson plans and useful cultural and other background articles.
The Scheme of Work can be downloaded or viewed as a flipbook.
