Noteflight Compositions

Students were given the opportunity to compose their own piece of music using the free website noteflight.com. All compositions had to be 8 measures long. 6th grade students had to use three different kinds of rhythmic notes: quarter notes, half notes and eighth notes. 7th and 8th grade students had to incorporate slurs, dynamics and sixteenth notes into their compositions. This piece of evidence is an example of the redefinition level: the technology not only allows the students to compose their music easily on their chromebooks, it allows a playback feature for them to hear their own masterpiece. Students can also select the instrument they would like to hear play their piece. This would not be possible without the use of this incredible technology!
