Music Lesson for Sixth Grade Class Using FL STUDIO

At the beginning of the school year, my Music Class required to make and present something that can be used to teach music and I had to come up with three lessons to accompany this music device. It was pretty obvious that I would choose something technological as my "music device" (and strangely, I was the only one to do so in that class) and this is the awkward five minute presentation that was created:

To view the lessons, you can access them by visiting a Google Document I have created here.
Thank you to @ianborges who was kind enough to lend me his personal music studio and who tolerated my many filming retakes due to laughing or forgetting what to say.

Enjoy the lessons!

  2. Thanks so much, Zoe! I haven't had the opportunity to try these lessons with a class yet, but I have a sixth grade class this upcoming block so we'll see if I can give it a shot because I think they'd have fun with it.
    And it doesn't have to be FL Studio - it's pretty expensive - free software like Garage band or even http://www.aviary.com are even simpler to use and free of charge! FL Studio is a professional product.
