What educators are saying
Description
In this mini-project, students become music critics or music journalists, reviewing and critiquing a full, complete album. Students select:
- An artist/musician of your choice, and
- One of their complete albums (some listed as examples).
This resource is 100% Editable (Google Docs.) and you may list albums you'd prefer students to review, or allow students to select their own. I created this assignment for use with secondary general music students (middle and high school, grades 7-12).
