A Free Online Music History Curriculum www.musichistoryforkids.com

music history for kids banner

We’ve made it easy to teach music history to your music class or even study it independently. Our music history curriculum includes the Western classical eras, plus rock and roll, country music, and jazz history. Each era is broken down into a general overview, highlighted composers, and instruments. Pages include free downloadable music history worksheets and critical thinking questions for each section.

The easy reading level is optimal for upper elementary and middle school students to understand and read aloud in a classroom setting. You won’t have to click back and forth using multiple tabs and websites anymore. We wanted to make life easier for music teachers. Students will have fun, and teachers can rest assured that they cover every topic and use age-appropriate examples.

Angela Bond, Owner of Plum Rose Publishing.

Plum Rose Publishing is a female and minority-owned business started by a music teacher. During the pandemic in 2019, Angela wrote her first music theory coloring workbook. Her brother, an art teacher, illustrated it, and she used her stimulus money to print the first few hundred copies. After selling to local music stores and schools, Angela expanded her business into other music education resources and publications. Plum Rose Publishing now provides resources for people in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.
