Antonio Vivaldi La Stravaganza

Embark on a 12-month musical journey through time with the Classical Journey Bundle! ♬

Add a touch of mindful music to any season, holiday, or composer unit study. With over 150 categorized classical pieces, the Classical Journey Bundle offers an engaging printable for every occasion. Each month unlocks a curated selection of themed classical music pieces, perfectly paired with a holiday or season!

On January 28th, 1985, dozens of the time period’s most popular musicians gathered in Los Angeles to record a charity song for African famine relief. Setting stylistic differences and egos aside, they collaborated on a song that would make history. This documentary, which debuted at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival, examines how the song came to be, who was involved, and the implications of the recording.

This Doc (printable OR digital) asks students 9 thought-provoking questions for during and after viewing the film. This is NOT a guided viewing assignment; it's a series of thought-provoking questions that asks them to consider the film as a whole and to synthesize what they might already know about these musicians and the event with what they saw in the film. They are asked about the title, the lyrics to "We Are The World", the impact of the event, who planned the event and why, the artists who participated, the arrangement of the recording, the public's response, the impact of the song during this particular time period, etc.

I use this with my high school elective "Lyrics as Literature" with 9-12th graders, but I'd feel comfortable using it with upper middle school students as well.

Art – painting, music, dance, writing, poetry, performance and other forms – is the theme of this educational puzzle set.

SET 3: Two Measure cards in 4/4 time using Quarter Notes, and Quarter Rests.

These flashcards are a great compliment to your resource library! Each set is 1 to 2 measures of a vast variety of rhythms to build sight reading, fluency, and rhythmic skills in the music classroom. The flashcards can be used in both the classroom and private studio setting. They are small enough for you to slip into a binder, or envelop if you are a traveling teacher! You can also slip these under a document camera, or stick them on a music stand for rapid fire reading with your kiddos!

For optimal durability, I recommend printing on heavier paper, cutting each section out, and laminating the cards. Binding is up to you, but you can hole punch and put them on binder rings, or have each set coil bound.

Bring music theory to life with Bass Clef Uno, a music-themed twist on the classic card game that’s perfect for reinforcing note reading and rhythm recognition in a fun, interactive way. This game is ideal for music students who are learning to read notes on the bass clef staff and understand note durations.
How to Play:

1. Set Up:

• Each player is dealt 7 cards. The remaining cards form a draw pile, with the top card flipped over to start the discard pile.
• The cards in this game feature notes on the bass clef staff (like C, D, E) and note durations (like quarter notes, half notes, whole notes) instead of the traditional Uno colors and numbers.

1. Gameplay:

• Players take turns matching a card from their hand to the top card of the discard pile by either note name (e.g., C to C) or note duration (e.g., quarter note to quarter note).
• If a player cannot match the top card, they must draw a card from the draw pile. If that card can be played, they may play it immediately; otherwise, the turn passes to the next player.

1. Special Cards:

• Reverse: Reverses the direction of play.
• Skip: Skips the next player’s turn.
• +2: The next player must draw two cards and skip their turn.
• Wild: The player who plays this card can choose the next note name or duration to be matched.
• Wild +4: The player who plays this card chooses the next note name or duration to be matched, and the next player must draw four cards and skip their turn.

1. Winning the Game:

• The objective is to be the first player to get rid of all your cards. When a player plays their second-to-last card, they must shout "Uno!" If another player catches them not saying it before their next turn, that player must draw two cards.
• The first player to play all their cards wins the round. You can keep score by adding up the remaining cards in other players' hands, or just start a new round for more fun!

Why You’ll Love It:

• Engaging Learning: Reinforces note reading and rhythm recognition while students enjoy the familiar and competitive gameplay of Uno.

Turn note reading into a lively, competitive game with the Treble Clef Spoons Game! Based on the classic game of spoons, this activity helps students practice spelling and identifying notes in the treble clef while having fun.
How to Play:

1. Set Up:

• Choose whether to play with 3-letter words or 4-letter words. Each word corresponds to note names (e.g., CAB, EFG).
• Deal each student a card with a word on it. Ensure that there’s one less spoon than the number of players and place the spoons in the center of the table.

1. Gameplay:

• Students sit in a circle, and the teacher deals four note name cards to each player. The rest of the note name cards are placed in a draw pile.
• The goal is for students to collect the note name cards needed to spell the word on their card. They do this by drawing one card from the draw pile and discarding one card to the player on their left.
• Students pass cards around the circle quickly, trying to collect the letters they need.

1. Grabbing Spoons:

• As soon as a player successfully spells their word, they grab a spoon from the center of the table.
• Once one player grabs a spoon, all other players must quickly try to grab a spoon too.
• The player who is left without a spoon is out of the round.

1. Winning the Game:

• The game continues until only one player is left or until you decide to start a new round.
