Good Morning 5JP,

l;kToday you are going to research different holiday adverts and look at what makes a good jingle for a holiday advert. You will be making your own holiday advert over the next few weeks with your own jingle so use this research as a time to collect some ideas!

Task 1

First, I would like you to familiarise yourself with the vocabulary that is used in Music. Use the link below and go through each of the videos.

Complete the quizzes as you go along: https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/articles/z7ryy4j

Task 2

You are now going to have a look at some holiday adverts!

Watch each of these videos and using the worksheet attached, make notes on what you notice about the music in each holiday advert and answer each of the questions.

Please be aware that I am unable to control or monitor which videos come up after and are recommended whilst these videos are watched. Please ensure you are aware of this when your child watches these videos.

Task 3

Now that you have listened to the music in holiday adverts, it is time to think about what you would like the music in your holiday advert to sound like.

Mind map all of your ideas on a piece of paper. Use the things you enjoyed about the music in the holiday adverts to help you.

Maybe your music will change as your advert becomes sunnier or as your family get on their holiday. Maybe yours will have a low pitch throughout and a slow tempo as it will be more serious. It is up to you!

Task 4

It is now your chance to have a go at creating your own piece of music and experimenting with different sounds.

Use garage band if you are able to access it to improvise and think of your own jingle or use what you have got in your home to make music, such as pots and pans, a keyboard or cardboard boxes. However, make sure you ask your parents before doing this!
