Prebuilt core curriculum lessons
Torbay Academy of Performing Arts (TAPAS) Interactive provides prebuilt lessons for most instruments including recorder, keyboard, strings, brass, woodwind and ukulele.
You will also find resources grouped into useful curriculum areas so that you can quickly get to the things you need.
Our resources are developed in response to what teachers have told us they need, making them uniquely focussed, innovative, adaptable and useful.
Create your own lessons
As well as a large range of prebuilt lessons you can create your own lessons from scratch.
Search or browse the huge resource library and as you find things you like, simply add them to your shopping cart (don’t worry it’s just an easy way to collect resources - you’re not buying anything!). When you’ve finished exploring and have the resources you need, just add them to any of your existing lessons or create new ones.
Once you’ve created your lessons you can use them online or download them on to your memory stick, laptop, or classroom PC.
Download lessons for offline
f you don’t have access to the internet in your classroom (and even if you do), you can download your lessons including all the resources, to your memory stick, laptop, or classroom PC. Whichever way you choose, all the lessons and the interactive resources they contain are totally portable.
When you save lessons to your memory stick you can use them on any computer. You don’t have to be connected to the internet.
