S1 and S2 Homework

Homework plays an important part in the development of your knowledge and practical skills, and will take a variety of forms depending on the particular unit of work you are following.

Homework might include practising of your performing skills, revising concepts, and completing written exercises.

In S1 and S2, homework will mostly take the form of short written exercises in the Music Workbook.  These exercises will most often involve musical literacy.

Element of the course Type of Homework Frequency
Listening involves developing a deeper awareness and perception of a variety of musical styles and concepts. Revision of concepts and musical literacy studied in class. Short written exercises from the Music Workbook. Every week
Performing involves practising and playing music from a variety of styles, using standard musical notation.

Regular practice is encouraged on at least one instrument. Time will be spent in class to develop performing skills.

It is recommended that some time is spent practising through the week outwith class, although it is appreciated that not all pupils will have access to an instrument at home.

 3 – 4 times per week (if possible)
