Using the BBC Radio 4 'Inheritance Tracks' programme as a model, students talk about a piece of music they feel they've 'inherited' and one they'd like to pass on to the next generation. You will need to download two Radio 4 tracks in advance of the lesson: www.bbc.co.uk/podcasts/series/it/all

Students really enjoyed this activity.I downloaded a couple of podcasts which they listened to and then completed quite detailed comprehension sheets. I presented my inheritance tracks to give them a better idea and they all did mini presentations with their music in the background. As they're engineering students this made a great change from technology related subjects.

great opportunity to make pupils talk about the music that has marked their childhood, the memories and feelings that still remain.
