Using this with my 5th graders for their composition project this year. My only reason for not straight A’s is because the example has some spelling errors and my students noticed. Might want to fix that (like “Trebel cleff” instead of Treble Clef”). Other than that this is an awesome project!
Jennifer Foxx –
Hi Krista, thanks for your comment. I hope your 5th graders enjoy it. Just an FYI- the example was from a student… We did talk about how treble clef should be spelled… I use these mistakes as an opportunity to teach and I love it when students themselves catch the mistakes. But maybe I should have edited his pages first. I do have his original still, so I went ahead and updated the examples with the fixed version.
