What is Classroom 200?
Classroom 200 is a unique, free classroom resource developed by teachers and produced by the Royal Schools of Music exam board, ABRSM, to help teach music to 5-14-year-olds in all parts of the UK.
It gives teachers ready-made lesson content to complement curriculums and combines technical rigour with music familiar to a far wider range of children.
The 200 tracks featured include 100 pieces of classical music and a further 100 pieces, from Queen’s I Want to Break Free and Aretha Franklin’s Think to themes from Dr Who, Pirates of the Caribbean and Star Wars, two Welsh language folk songs, Inkanyezi Nezazi by
Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Oasis’ Wonderwall, Rag n’ Bone Man’s Human and Paranoid Android by Radiohead, Ma Rainey’s Runaway Blues.
They sit alongside a rich and varied selection of classical favourites including Holst’s The Planets, Britten’s Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra, Mozart’s Symphony No 40, Concierto de Aranjuez by Rodrigo and I Got Rhythm by Gershwin.
Lesson plans have been developed for all 200 pieces of
music.
There are simple filters to select music include classroom layout, musical element (pitch, timbre etc), group type (ensemble, solo) and age of children. Teachers can also use the tags to search on a range of key musical and non-musical terms likely to arise in lessons (eg ‘12 bar blues’, ‘harvest’, ‘glockenspiel’ or ‘war’).
