We began our topic in class the other day which is Popular Music from 1960’s (AQA GCSE Music) All the slides from the lesson are available to you on Google Classroom for you to access and rewatchWe will complete this first piece of work in lesson on TuesdayI have also set some homework for you to memorise the Italian Terms for Tempo and Dynamics and I will test how well you have learned these in the next lesson.   

In addition to the work in class I would like you to supplement class learning with the work outlined below so that we stay on track with subject content.
