The musical, The Sound of Music has been a favorite for generations. This product gives you a wide variety of worksheets, writing prompts and activities to use with your students. This set was designed for grades 1-8 but could easily work for high school classes as well. Check out the preview for a list of activities with suggested grade levels.

Most of the activities in this set require no musical knowledge, so you can confidently leave pages from this set for a substitute teacher. The viewing guide and coloring sheet could be used while watching the musical, but the other sheets were designed to be used after viewing.
