Hi everyone! I hope you are well and looking forward to the festive season.

With all sorts of events and concerts going on, and nearing the end of the longest term of the year, I am well aware of how challenging this time can be. As a result, I will keep it brief and share my 'go to' Christmas lesson resources.
These worksheets will allow students to recap some key musical learning, while giving them something festive to do, with very little effort on the part of the teacher! There are three different versions, meaning you can choose the right level for different year groups, but also differentiate very easily within a mixed ability class. They're also perfect for cover lessons while your rehearsals and events are going on, as they require basically no planning! Please do let me know if you have some of your own that I could share around too.
Finally, I'm still hoping to get some more replies to the little survey about district panel meetings. It really is a very short one, so if you have a couple of minutes to spare I'd be very grateful. Ultimately, we're looking at ways of making panel meetings more effective and beneficial for you, so the more background we have from you the better. Link below.
I probably won't be posting again until next term, unless there are more little useful things to share, so best wishes for the rest of the term and I hope you have a wonderful festive break.
