Get ready to crank up creativity with Turn It Up, a high-energy collection that introduces students to music, performance and self-expression through the fun and accessible world of air bands. Designed for both primary and secondary learners, this collection proves that you don’t need instruments to experience the joy of making music together.
Through a series of engaging videos and guided activities, students learn how to perform a range of “air instruments,” including air guitar, air drums, air saxophone, air decks and even the air triangle. Along the way, they develop skills in mime, movement, rhythm, characterisation and performance, culminating in the creation of their own unique air band and music video.
Teachers are supported with ready-to-use lesson sequences, practical demonstrations and creative challenges that require little preparation and no specialised equipment. The flexible format makes it easy to engage whole classes while promoting participation and collaboration.
Aligned to The Australian Curriculum: The Arts (Music and Drama), Turn It Up fosters confidence, creativity and teamwork. It’s a fun, inclusive and classroom-ready resource that helps busy teachers bring the excitement of performance into any learning environment.
