    This resources can be used as a stand alone for a general music class or as supplemental material for the Chorus or Band classroom! Also good for the early high school level, it presents all fo the music elements in a very interesting format for students! !00% worth it!!!

    I wish I had found this sooner! Instead of having to hunt for information, this package summarizes the elements of music for you! Students are able to work at their own pace and then have this as reference when working on other material and projects!! Where were you when I started teaching music?!?

    • Yellow Brick Road Music –

      Thanks so much for the kind review! I wish I’d had this when I first started teaching too!!

    This resource is visually appealing, very organized and easy to navigate. Started this when our district was fully remote and continued when we returned to school. Having this interactive digital resource is so easily accessible for my students, and keeps their learning consistent as our learning model has pivoted back and forth due to the pandemic. Thank you for this amazing resource!

    Once I figured out how to assign this without posting the entire resource every week, it was great.

    • Yellow Brick Road Music –

      **Edited to add that I’ve updated my directions in this resource to include how to assign specific pages. I hope this helps!**

      Thanks for the feedback. I’ll keep this in mind for future revisions of my directions page.
