Music notation software. Students write scores and hear them played back straight away.
Creative Amplify
Students write two eight-bar variations on the opening of Beethoven's Ode to Joy in Sibelius, one in D minor and one with a new rhythm, playing each back as they notate.
Interactive Amplify
Students rate three melodies over the same chords for how singable they are and how well they fit a lullaby, then sing the one that splits the class.
Students notate four-bar rhythms and a short melody the teacher plays, then play their own notation back in Sibelius, hear where it differs from the original and correct it before the answer is shown.
