One of the biggest challenges as a music teacher is balancing performance prep with all of the other pieces of the curriculum—history, listening, analysis, and reflection. Sometimes it feels like there just isn’t enough time to do it all. That’s exactly why I created my Composer of the Month Bundle: a simple, ready-to-go way to weave music history into your program without adding hours of prep to your plate.
Why Composer of the Month Works
Having a focus composer each month keeps students engaged while building their listening skills and historical awareness. Instead of overwhelming students with timelines and long lectures, you can zoom in on one influential figure at a time. Over the course of the year, they begin to connect the dots between eras, styles, and innovations.
Here’s what makes the bundle especially effective:
Mini-Biographies ✍️ – Short and approachable, perfect for introducing each composer.
Listening Activities 🎧 – Students actively engage with the music through guided prompts.
Quizzes & Reflection 📝 – Easy assessment opportunities to check understanding.
Posters & Visuals 🎨 – Bright, classroom-ready displays that reinforce learning.
What’s Inside the Bundle
The full set covers 12 of the most iconic composers—from Bach’s brilliant fugues to Tchaikovsky’s sweeping romanticism. Each resource is designed to be plug-and-play, so you can print or project and be ready to teach in minutes.
Whether you teach general music, choir, band, or private lessons, these activities fit seamlessly into your routine. They work beautifully as bell-ringers, sub plans, or enrichment for early finishers.
Why Teachers Love It
Teachers who’ve used these resources say the structure and variety help them keep students focused and curious all year long. Plus, it’s one less thing to plan! You can feel confident knowing your students are getting exposure to the greats without you having to reinvent the wheel every month.
