Progressive lessons introduce composition, movement, body percussion, playing simple instruments, sol-fa and basic notation. Some lessons are for the whole class, and others are for smaller groups. Each lesson plan includes step-by-step instructions, music and sound examples, printable pictures, and learning outcomes stating what students will achieve. Sibelius Starclass contains hundreds of audio examples, ranging from abstract sounds such as metronomes and breaking waves, to instrumental excerpts and music to perform activities to. These are also provided on an audio CD, so you can play them in class without a computer. Starclass includes hundreds of pictures of everything from instruments to dinosaurs, which you can enlarge and print out for worksheets, flashcards and posters. All of these resources may be photocopied! You don't need specialist knowledge of music to teach with Starclass.
