Project One Dot singing and composition register of interest
Wiltshire Music Connect is delighted to be working in partnership with Friday Afternoons to be the first music education hub to offer Project One Dot – a singing and composition CPD programme for primary school teachers, including teachers who are not music specialists.
This programme is being offered free of charge to Wiltshire primary schools, supported by Fridays Afternoons and Wiltshire Music Connect. In return, teachers will provide feedback and evaluation regarding impact on singing, listening, and composition in their schools.
What is Project One Dot?
The programme consists of four CPD sessions plus a summer celebration event and uses four seasonal songs from the Friday Afternoons free song bank.
Participating schools will come away with the four new songs, original arrangements and songs composed by their own pupils, a supporting work book, and a range of resources, activities and approaches to singing, listening, appraising and composing, linked to KS2 national curriculum for music
