Year 10 Cover work for music lesson today


1 OCTOBER GCSE PREPARATION work.  

Year 10. I am not in this week. To not fall behind with your learning, please complete the music lessons on this link.


SPEND AT LEAST 30 MINUTES PRACTISING FOR YOUR MOCK PERFORMANCE ON 15 OCTOBER.  You can not leave the classroom (211) so must use instruments there.  For piano use the keyboards on your macs. 

For those of you who manage to finish Woodwind last week. Please continue learning all about TIME SIGNATURES for this double lesson. 

This work is very important to know if you want to have interesting rhythm and meter (pulse) in your compositions.  You also need to know about it in order to PASS THE WRITTEN EXAM!!


There are 4 lessons to do BEFORE you do the tests. Make sure you leave 20 minutes at the end of the lesson to complete your test.
