Grade 9
The widest map of the school years (106 catalogue pathways) and the electric turn: rhythm electric guitar, songwriting form and lyric craft, with relationship ethics taught as dignity, truth and boundaries.
What this level contains
The Grade 9 level book is an integrated book of 11 pages with three parts: (1) a curriculum map — 106 catalogue courses and pathways mapped to this level across the collection's ten strands (Scripture & Ancient Writings · Spiritual Life & Character · Whole-Person Wellness · History & Peoples · Language & Literacy · Arts & Music · Nature & Earth · Society & Service · Skills & Vocation · Philosophy, Wisdom & Reasoning); (2) a music education profile — the level's place in the cumulative instrument pathway, its skills and assessment focus; and (3) a complete song set — three songs with full lyrics, instruments and composer guidance. The songs for this level, as printed in the book:
- Respect the Boundary
- Character Before Chemistry

Listen — the audio aspect of this level
David's design gives every level its own sound: the level book read aloud, and its three songs as recordings a learner can hear while the words are in front of them — in this language, or paired with another on the book pages. Honest status: no narration or song recording for this level is held yet — education audio delivered so far: none. The slots below are where each recording will live the day it arrives; nothing is presented as audio before the real recording exists. These slots are part of the lesson itself — this page carries no advertising, as always.
