Flat Music Notation - A Google add-on that both teachers and students can use



The Google add-on Flat Music Notation provides a practical solution for integrating music notation
in a Google Docs or Slides presentation. In fact, it's easy enough for students to use it too.

If it's not already installed, you’ll need to download it from the add-ons store. Once installed,
simply click Add-ons > Flat > Insert musical snippet, then input the musical notation you want to
appear.

I've created a short video tutorial to help you get started using the basic features.



Suggestions for use
Use Flat to create worksheets, custom warm-ups, or insert to a Google Slides presentation and
project it for the class to play. Students can use Flat to create their own rhythmic notation to submit
as an assessment or even use it as a basic composing tool.
