These templates are designed for music teachers (but can be used for any subject area, particularly specials/electives) to guide them in unit planning. I know I used to get overwhelmed when I would plan units because I had so many ideas but I wasn't sure how to organize them. Units can be themed (right now I'm teaching a "sun and moon" unit to pre-k through 1st grade), skill-based (ex. steady beat unit), or for older grades, the "unit" could be your preparation for a concert.This set includes a

Snowflakes, for two octaves handbells G4-g6

I wrote this for anyone who needs music for a winter concert for two octaves of handbells. Since it is generic, it could be performed or practiced as a class activity any time during the winter (or the summer if you want to feel cool). It uses a lot of tone painting with descending scales and descending thirds. The harmony gets thicker in the middle of the piece and then tapers off at the end. This is supposed to depict the beginning of a snowfall, a short blizzard in the middle, and the ending
