Composing and improvising UKS2

Having mastered the basics of creating music, children learn to include the interrelated dimensions of music to create a particular effect and compose across variety of music genres. This video explores how to develop composition and improvisation skills in Years 5 and 6. Building on their previous learning, pupils are now encouraged to create music for a range of real-world purposes—like jingles, carols, or film scores—using the interrelated dimensions of music. You’ll also find strategies to support group collaboration and self-evaluation as pupils prepare for Key Stage 3.
