Music Era Project
This document includes directions and a graphic organizer for research for a music era project. I usually have my students pick eras beginning with medieval music and allow them to pick eras all the way up to 90s grunge. It's really open, but these directions guide students to think about what styles led to this music era along with what was going on in society at the time.

Symbol Sleuth - Music Symbol Graphic Organizer
A very basic graphic organizer I made for my middle schoolers who've had me for several years now and are starting to encounter new music symbols (Coda, Common Time, etc) in their parts, but that do not require a full lesson to teach about
