I used the cards on Google slides for the class. In a Google Meet I presented the slides and students filled out a similar copy with fill-in blanks. We were only able to complete half of the slides before class was over. We will be in person next week and will continue teaching them about Sousa. Your time capsules are absolutely wonderful. Thank you for the resource.
Jennifer Foxx –
Thanks for sharing how you used them, Betty! Glad you are enjoying them with your students! 🙂

These time capsules are perfect for a station/center as a more engaging way to learn facts about a composer! Could use cards for little trivia games too!

I use these Composer Time Capsules for group classes with my piano students. They enjoy learning about a new composer several times per year, and the visuals and the clue card memory game helps the ideas to stick. We enjoy dividing up into teams to do the Kahoot, and the competition can get quite intense! I check every year to see if there are new composers to stock up on!
