This way students can go onto the classroom page, listen to each others songs, and give positive and encouraging feedback to each other!~ ♫ 𝙒𝙀 𝙒𝙄𝙇𝙇 𝙇𝙀𝘼𝙍𝙉 : ♫ ✔ How to play the digital instruments inside the app ✔ Learn about the 12-Bar Blues and characteristics of this genre ✔ How to play and record more advanced chords on various instruments ✔ How to create an arrangement inspired by an existing piece ✔ Learn about instruments from other countries and characteristics of an international piece ✔ …and more! ✩ 𝙋𝙇𝙀𝘼𝙎𝙀 𝙉𝙊𝙏𝙀 ✩ ♪ iPads or iPhones with GarageBand downloaded are ~ REQUIRED ~ for this course.
