The short answer is: it depends on what works for your school, and we’ve deliberately built it that way. The COMPOSE unit in Years 5 and 6 includes a mix of technology-based and non-technology projects, so you can choose what suits your context. In Grade 5, Projects 1 and 3 use technology such as sequencing apps and recording software, while Projects 2 and 4 don’t require it at all. Whether your school has a laptop trolley that’s always booked out or a class set of iPads that students are expected to use every lesson, there’s a pathway through the unit that works for you. You can run all four projects, or pick the ones that fit your situation — either way, students are meeting the curriculum’s requirement to notate, document and/or record their compositions.
