Task 15: Reviewing the unit (30 minutes)

Review the unit of work undertaken by answering the following questions.

  • Did pupils acquire relevant knowledge about features of a musical element, and did this support their knowledge of relevant conventions, processes and devices? What evidence do you have?
  • Did pupils learn how to improve their practical musical skills, and did this support their practical exploration of the genre, style or tradition? What evidence do you have?
  • As a consequence were pupils able to articulate and/or demonstrate practically their musical understanding? What evidence do you have?
  • Consider the progress pupils made in learning about features of musical elements and developing musical skills: was this less than, equal to or better than progress normally made? What evidence do you have?
  • Consider the impact on pupils’ motivation: was motivation lower than, equal to or better than usual? What evidence do you have?
