Google Classroom and MakeMusic

Weekly assignments will be posted in Google Classroom under the "Classwork" tab, organized by weeks and numbered in sequential order.  After an assignment is completed, regardless of platform, students must click on the "Mark as done" button (or the assignment will automatically be labeled by Google Classroom as "Missing").

All instrumental music students will be given weekly (or semi-weekly) assignments using the MakeMusic interactive software program.

Student assignments (and assessments) will be performance-based, and may include the following items:
  • Rhythm exercises/clapping and counting
  • Scales
  • Solo excerpts from ensemble repertoire
  • Sight-reading

MakeMusic

All JAMS Instrumental Music students will receive a free MakeMusic account to use at school AND at home.  (Internet service is required as well as the Google Chrome browser.)  To start using MakeMusic, click HERE and use the following steps to login:
