"Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything." ~Plato
"Life can't be all bad when for ten dollars you can buy all the Beethoven sonatas and listen to them for ten years." ~William F. Buckley, Jr.
Curriculum Materials
Help for downloading materials from Spotlight:
The Song Anthology book, Course Planner, Piano Accompaniment, and Teacher Resource Masters are available to download. There is also the K-12 Portal App to use the resources offline in the app, including songs, though, this may not be a helpful solution with technology being limited. Another way to access the songs offline is by using the browser cache. You would access them directly from the laptop and when they open in a new window - You now have them on the device and do not need to rely on internet to access them again. You can open as many browser windows as you need to and can have as many tabs with 'open' songs as you need. But, they will stay on the browser as the copyright permissions would not allow for downloading to your device to "Save" them. Here's a link to one of our Help videos that will walk you through this process: https://mhedu.force.com/DTS/s/article/Music-Studio-Audio-Tracks-for-Offline-Use |
