Music Theory Curriculum Plan

This theory curriculum plan starts small, allows for content differentiation and pacing without overwhelming the instructor, and lays out a four year plan with the potential to take a student from no music literacy skills to the beginning steps of composition. It is a malleable template that can be easily adjusted to the needs of an individual school.

Pacing is Important!

Good rehearsal planning isn’t just about efficiency. It’s also about maintaining positive energy. No rehearsal should feel like a slog, and a smart rehearsal structure can keep energy high without sacrificing efficiency. This is the general template I follow for every rehearsal-based lesson to maintain forward momentum.
