Demo Disk Flashcards

DIRECTIONS: Use these flashcards with the Demo Disk (Click). The composers are listed here the in numerical order they are on that disk...and this makes them chronological also. To print them, you must use Internet Explorer. Go to "Print Review" and go to the last top box seen above to the right. Set it to about 80% or something else that looks good. You will have to do this EVERY time you print. Fold the sheets and halves and you have nice flashcards. You also need to print out the Demo Disk Recognition/Evaluation Sheets...Click Here...for the children. On these the children will note whether or not they have heard the music pieces, but will also rate them. A fun activity for them, and interesting to see which composers they favor. You might want to do one composer a week if you are a music teacher, or one composer a day if a regular teacher; i.e. let kids listen to one composer, then show them the picture on the front of the flashcard, and then brainstorm the class on how much they remembered of the facts about him...of course you have the info staring you in the face on the other side of the flashcard. The next day or period, review the flashcard of the first composer, then play the CD introducing the next sound tract, and review the facts using the second flashcard, etc. Hey, I taught foor 30 years, but I don't want to tell you how to teach...this is just what worked for me.
