Compose 8-Bit Game Music in BeepBox (3 files: plan, 9 slides, worksheet). Five scaffolded steps from tempo choice to a three-layer loop, saved as a URL. The plan includes a “BeepBox in five minutes” section for non-specialists, a 4-level formative marking scale matched word-for-word to the student self-assessment checklist, and the common-failure notes (URL-as-save-file, tempo 500 kids, drum channel confusion).
A complete one-off composing lesson using BeepBox, a free browser tool: no software, no accounts, no notation. Slides, worksheet, marking scale. Ages 11–14.
Five scaffolded steps take every student from blank screen to a working three-layer chiptune loop saved as a shareable link; includes 4-level marking scale, matching student self-assessment, peer feedback protocol, full non-specialist teacher notes and tech troubleshooting; zero copyright-sensitive material, so nothing to source; ideal for computer-room lessons, music technology units or as the creative follow-up to any game music listening lesson. This one has the strongest cross-sell hook to the bundle since the bundle’s composition assessment also uses BeepBox: say so explicitly in the description.
