A fun and diverse way to share and gain experience of listening, performing, or writing music.
Group experience
This group provides a space for all things music: A place for students to engage with listening to new music, sharing the music that they love, and learning about composers, instruments of the orchestra, and elements of music theory. This is a group for both people who are new to orchestral music, and those with more experience of listening and/or playing an instrument. Throughout the weeks, we'll have activities such as thread-based games, creative challenges, discussion questions, puzzles...
Learners will gain experience of listening to and responding to a variety of orchestral music, helping to broaden their foundations in music appreciation and/or music performance. Learners will practice giving aural / musical perception responses. Learners will practice applying music theory to orchestral music. Learners will gain awareness of the features of different instruments of the orchestra.
Welcome to our Group! We want all of our learners to feel comfortable, connected, and safe. That's why we have 3 rules we ask you to follow: Be Kind, Be Safe, and Be Respectful. Be Kind - Help all learners feel welcome and included. Learners from all over the world, with different backgrounds, races, ethnicities, abilities, gender identities, religions and body types, participate in our Group. Always be nice and make others, especially new learners, know that they belong and are welcome. Teasing, name calling, or bullying anybody in our community? Nope. Not happening here Be Safe - Keep your personal information private and never ask other learners for theirs. Personal things are personal. We want to keep you safe on Outschool, but we also want YOU to understand how to be safe when you're meeting other learners or teachers. Keep your full name, home address, gaming or social media name, email, and school name private. Be Respectful - Treat others how you want to be treated. Keep language clean and information you share safe. If you wouldn't say it or share with your grandma, don't do it here. Swear words, racy videos, and violent images are not allowed. Treat Outschool like a public place, and when in doubt, keep things covered. Please make your intro video (it can be as short as "Hello, my name is _____" or long and detailed if you wish!). Then you can join in with the discussions and activities :)
