In this lesson, pupils will be encouraged to listen closely and respond to how a piece of music in a film scene captures the tone of the events. The activity will work towards equipping them with bespoke musical vocabulary that they can use when speaking about a piece of music. This language is a transferrable skill across the other lessons in this resource series. By harnessing this language, learners can build confidence in speaking about music across a range of contexts.

Updating our resources

We have developed a large catalogue of educational resources since launching in 2013, and some references and terminology will inevitably have dated as society and language evolves. We are aware of this and will be updating resources when our production schedule allows.
