I don't know about you, but at my house the tree is decorated, the lights are twinkling, and the countdown to Christmas is officially on!

The next three weeks are going to be busy--so let's make each lesson between now and Christmas a fun one!


Today I am sharing my annual Christmas resource round-up, with all of my Christmas music and free teaching resources gathered in one place to make your job easier. Whether you are looking for a last-minute repertoire piece, preparing for upcoming holiday performances, or looking for a worksheet to reinforce your students' theory skills--I've got you covered! Click on the links below for more information about any of these resources.

Free Christmas and Winter Repertoire Lists

11/12/2019

0 Comments

 
One of the projects I like to have my students do during November and December is to create a list of all of the fun holiday music they are learning. I think this is especially important for my younger students, who are very motivated to see their repertoire lists grow as they learn more and more pieces. It is also a great way to create a performance goal for all of my students--I encourage them to use the music on these lists to perform for their families over our holiday break!

Today I am sharing these repertoire list templates with you. Feel free to print these out and use them with your students this holiday season! There is one list for Christmas repertoire, and a second list for winter repertoire that can be used by students who don't celebrate Christmas or by those who want to continue their repertoire lists into the new year.
