Homework in S1 & 2 will consist of a number of activities, most of which are to be completed online. We have a range of homework exercises/activities which will be emailed to pupils’ Glow email address. Usually Homework will be given one week to be completed. Most activities are designed to support pupil’s knowledge and understanding of the theory and background to the pieces they are playing in class.
Homework in S3 will consist of similar (but more advanced) activities to those issued in S1 & 2, but will also consist of more in depth activities designed to enhance their understanding of music topics and theory.
Where pupils play a musical instrument, they will be encouraged to practise it at home as part of their ongoing routine each week – we recommend ‘little and often’ is better than cramming in lots of practice in one evening! Pupils who wish to access the department to practice are encouraged to do so by arranging this with one of the music teachers in the department.
Some of our homework activities will be assigned the ‘Family Learning’ logo – these activities are designed to allow you as parents/carers to interact with your child in the activity / homework.
