35 resources availableAbout Music Resources
Music teaching resources help Australian primary teachers bring the joy and power of music into the classroom, supporting students to develop skills in listening, performing, composing, and responding to music. The Music strand of the Australian Curriculum: The Arts builds student understanding of musical elements — rhythm, pitch, dynamics, tempo, and structure — through practical, hands-on music-making experiences from Foundation to Year 6.
TeachBuySell features music resources created by Australian primary teachers. Browse rhythm activities, singing resources, body percussion lessons, instrument exploration tasks, music listening and appreciation activities, composition scaffolds, music theory worksheets, and music-themed craft projects. Many resources are designed for classroom generalist teachers and require no specialist music training or expensive instruments.
Music learning supports development across the curriculum — rhythm and pattern work connects to mathematics, song lyrics develop literacy skills, and music from different cultures enriches HASS learning. The best music resources provide clear, practical activities that build musical skills progressively while engaging students in the joy of making music together. Whether you need a Term 3 music program or a collection of rhythm games for your weekly music lesson, our collection helps you deliver meaningful music experiences for every student.
