More than $20 Elementary School Arts & Music Worksheets

"My students loved being able to print off the listening guides to fill in while they listened to a piece of music! Visually, the guides are set up well and are fun and attractive to the kids!" - Kristin Z.

What are the benefits of this bundle?

• Save time! The classical music selections are pre-selected for you.
• These low-prep activities are great for winding down the school year.
• Add music appreciation to your summer send-home packets.
• Easily find the music on YouTube or your favorite music services.
• Engaging and mindful activities for students (and their families!)
• No musical training is required - just print and play!

What's Inside?

This low-prep packet includes a resource guide, star-rating guides, and two different listening pages per piece! Students pair a listening activity with the music and begin noting their feelings, ideas, and more. There are lots of keywords to choose from, instruments to identify, and plenty of room for creativity. Discuss and display for further engagement.

What is the Easel Activity?

Students use the highlight tool to choose from keyword lists that describe their listening experience. An answer box allows students to type a brief description of their thoughts and feelings. Using the pen or any design tool provided, students can decorate a scene or upload an image to the frame!
