Notation
The BIG Players:
Noteflight. My long-time favorite because it's online. No upgrades or file incompatibility. The free version gets you 10 scores with basic functionality. Do yourself a favor and purchase a classroom subscription to the full-featured Noteflight Crescendo. You'll be able to keep your work & your students' work in a protected environment. No worries about students needing to supply emails or personal info. |
Musescore. Totally free, with an active online community. The robust editing functions continue to improve with each new release. If you want to download scores from the community, you'll need to pay for a membership. If you are a MusicFirst teacher, download this software to make creating custom PracticeFirst activities quick and easy.

Yes, there are other notation platforms. For the cost and convenience, go with Musescore, Flat, or Noteflight.
