Year 13 Half Term Homework

There are three distinct things to do over half term:

  1. Complete the Poulenc introductory reading and listening work on Google Classroom
  2. Hand in your composition (by Wednesday in half term)
  3. Keep on revising Haydn, Essays and Debussy. Concentrate on your weak points. We will follow a revision schedule after half term, which I will share with you.

Year 12 Half Term Homework

We have a final starting points test on WEDNESDAY 3rd November.

If you want to do some extra practice, you can revisit some of the earlier GC quizzes here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1p9KPCA0GDmn2dNvAxDQda9rn2zwdAd-c?usp=sharing

In the test there will be:

  • Aural chords and cadences
