Music

What is our vision for Music at Parklands ET?

Children will leave school with a solid understanding of basic musical theory.

This will include:

• Technical vocabulary.
• Knowledge of instruments and orchestral families.
• Having performed to an audience (E.g. Parent share morning, assembly performance, school nativity).
• Children will leave school with a sense of rhythm and timings.
• They should be able to play as part of a group either by using percussion, an instrument of their own, or their voice.
• Children will be taught by the North Somerset Music Service each year at Key Stage 2.

How will our children learn Music?

• Ensure musical notes are being referred to along-side the correct technical vocabulary.
• Arrange regularly opportunities for the children to showcase their learning.
• Ensure singing assemblies are occurring regularly and the children are exposed to a range of song styles. (E.g. Call and response, Parts in an echo, Harmonies etc).
