(4th grade) Unit Outcome: Students will gain an understanding on varied elements of melody through a variety of songs, games, and listening activities. Unit Objectives: Students will demonstrate awareness of the following elements of melody: Melody may move up or down, by step or skip or have repeated notes. Melody may be grouped into patterns Melody may be organized around a tonal center Melody may outline or imply harmony Sessions (45 minute class periods): (The Water is Wide) Lesson 1 (Ants Came Marching) Singing Game 1 (Patterns) (Lavenders Blues) Lesson 2 (A Sailor Went to Sea) Singing Game 2 (Patterns) (Home Sweet Home) Lesson 3 Vive lamour Listening Lesson National Standards in this Unit: 1. Singing, alone and with others, a varied repertoire of music Lessons 1-5: Learning and singing new music of various styles 2. Performing on instruments, alone and with others, a varied repertoire of music Lesson 3&6: xylophones and boom whackers 4. Composing and arranging music within specified guidelines Lesson 3: Composing new versions of Lavenders Blue 5. Reading and notating music Lesson 3: Reading xylophone music, writing their own versions 6. Listening to, analyzing, and describing music Lesson 6: Listening (analyzing) Lesson 8. Understanding relationships between music, the other arts, & disciplines outside the arts. Lesson 5: Cinema (Movies) 9. Understanding music in relation to history and culture Lesson 1: Journey to America Considerations for Special Learners: Lesson 1: The paper cut-out manipulatives may be a challenge for those EI students who may have a tendency to put things in their mouth or require materials a bit more durable than paper. These could be mounted on cardboard or laminated for that student. Singing Game 1: Be especially aware of students who may be wheelchair bound or have difficulty marching. Always be sure they are able to participate. The teacher or Adult helper can push the wheelchair as all of the other students walk, so they wont feel left out. Be sure they have a group as groups start to form. Lesson 2: Be aware of students with difficulty with motor coordination or grasping objects. Using adapted mallets may help. Also including the student in the first group of players will avoid putting them on the spot in have to improvise or compose. Singing Game 2: If you have a special needs child, allow them to participate, even if you (the teacher) walk with them. It may be best to put them in the outside circle. A wheelchair-bound student may be able to sit in the center of the circle and do the motions Lesson 3: Again be aware of your students special needs with regard to manipulatives, and modify materials accordingly. Also placing the special needs child a bit closer to the home may help. They may even want to partner up with someone else with the same character, that way it is a group activity with a friend, not an experience in being lost in the process and on ones own. Listening Lesson: Allowing a special needs child a boom whacker on do means that they will most of the time be a correct part of the chord. If the child has difficulty with small objects, give him the low do (larger boom whacker), and vice versa. Lesson 1: The Water is Wide Level: 4th Grade Content: Melody may move up and down or by skips and steps Objective: Children will demonstrate their awareness and understanding of the up and down and skip vs. Step motion of a melody by: Learn and sing the melody with the group using proper skips and steps. Holding up the skip/step cut-outs or both as contained in the musical phrase Moving the appropriate cut outs in the appropriate direction with the music Known: Students have had experience with both up/down melodies and skip/step melodies. Are attempting to perceive both Materials: Cut outs of someone skipping (or skip UNO cards for a smaller class), cut outs of a step of stairs (Steps). Summary: Ask the kids if they have ever taken a boat ride? How long? When America was new, many people took boats to get here etc. Introduce and sing the song. Teach via wrote song method Discussing at some point the skips, steps and up/down Passing out (randomly) one of each cutout for student Instruct the kids to hold up the right one as they listen to teacher Try the same with them singing Finally, try incorporating the up/down motion as appropriate Singing Game 1: The Ants Came Marching The students review/learn the Ants Came Marching song Verses 1-5 (Discuss the words that rhyme with 1,2,3,4 & 5) Talk about the three parts (repeated patterns in the melody) Pattern 1 (mm. 1 & 2 and 5 & 6) Pattern 2 (mm. 3 & 4 and 7 & 8) Pattern 3 (mm. 9-12) Then Students count off 1,2,3, 1,2,3 etc. The 1s sing pattern 1, the 2s sing pattern 2 and the 3s sing pattern 3 And every body sings And they all go Marching etc. The next time, students all get into a single file line and March across the room The song is repeated moving onto verse two, when the kids turn around, pair up (hold hands), and march two by two across the room (back the other direction) On the third verse the march in groups of three This pattern continues for up to 5 or 6 verses Groups of 5 and six ants marching across the room together Whatever your class size (and patience!) will accommodate Lesson 2: Lavenders Blue* Level: 4th Grade Content: Melody may move by steps or skips Objective: The students will demonstrate understanding of skips vs. steps in the context of a melody: Playing the melody of Lavenders blue with the proper skips and steps Composing a NEW version of the song using the given patterns Both to be accomplished to 90% accuracy Known: Students have been exposed to the upward and downward motion of melody. Students have had experience with both skips and steps. Materials: Students xylophones and mallets (about 6 or 8) Summary: Ask the children about what a crown is . . .who wheres a crown etc.? This is a song about a King who wants Lavender to be his queen But now she is blue (sad) and green (not feeling well) Learn song, via wrote song method (1st two verses only) Talk about the different parts of the melody Up/Down parts Skip step parts Choose 6 pairs of student to sit by xylophones While the rest of the students sing Sing two times so that both get a chance to play the melody Choose six new pairs This time, the players can change the melody They must use skips including do, mi. and sol. They must use four quick step in the same direction They MAY even mix up the order The player plays the new song The class figures out how the song would sound with words The class sings the new song Try two or three new versions * For this lesson the Melody would be slightly altered to begin G, B, D Lesson 3: Home Sweet Home Level: 4th Grade Content: Melody may be organized around a tonal center Objective: The students will demonstrate their awareness of a tonal center by: Known: The students will be familiar with musical phrases. Students will be familiar with basic precepts of melody (step/skip, up/down etc.). Materials: Several cardboard/paper cutouts of characters from the Wizard of Oz Representations of Homes** Summary: Introduce the song by asking/talking about the wizard of Oz Who has seen it . . . What was the girls name What did Dorothy want? And where was home for Dorothy? Music and songs have a home too. We call it the Home tone It is usually where the song starts (but not always) It is usually where the song ends (only rarely does it not end on the home tone) There is a song about Home, but more like the home you live in with family. Have the kids listen to the song Does is start on the same not it ends on? Does that note happen in other places? Do any phrases NOT end on the home tone Can you sing the home tone for me? Now the kids each get one of 5 characters from the Movie the Wizard of Oz Have the kids start in rows in the middle of the class As the song plays, they may wander about the room with/as their character At the end of each phrase If the phrase does not end on the home tone, they can be anywhere in the room If the phrase ends on a home tone, they have to be in (at or near) SOMEONEs home, even if it is not theirs When the song ends on the Final home tone the character must be back at THEIR OWN home**. * The homes for this lesson can be: drawn on a whiteboard, projected on a wall with a projector, or 3D standing models. Whatever is a clear (fun) representation of the characters homes. ** Farm House (Dorothy AND Toto), Cornfield (Scarecrow), Apple Orchard/Tree (Tin Man), Forrest (Lion) Listening Lesson: Viva lamoure Level: 4th Grade Content: Melody may outline or imply harmony Objective: Students with demonstrate their awareness and understanding of implied harmony by: Known: Students will be familiar with the basic I, IV and V chords, and will be able to distinguish changes in the chords (just that such changes occur) Materials: Recording of Viva Lamoure (by G Krunnfusz (TTB)) Boom whackers for the I, IV and V Chord (for the key in which the song is sung) Summary: Whats a melody (The main part or tune of a song) Whats harmony (when more then one note happens at the same time What kind of instruments can play more then one note Guitar Organ Piano Accordion! People in a group can also make chords by singing more then one note at the same time Listen to this song and see if you can hear any chords (Almost the whole song!) Write words of the Chorus on the White/Black Board Review about I, IV, and V Chords Analyze Chorus by playing in phrase by phrase and having them choose the best sounding chord. Write these chords over the words (ala lead sheet) on the White board Use colors (marker) corresponding to the boom whackers if possible Distribute boom whackers Have the kids stand in three (clearly separated) groups (Splitting the dos in the I and IV chords) Practice the three chords without the recording Then play the recording again and cue the people in the groups of the chosen chords to play when appropriate It may be ok to have let the kids make a mistake in their analysis (if none of them caught it before) to see if the can aurally catch the fact that something is not quite right. #%-.;)HXfzX h  .?HJ CE !A(O(Y([()).H* 56>*CJ 6B*ph B*ph6>* 56>*6>* 5>*CJ(H* 5>*CJ(5-.[Ge9 y  & F & F$a$$a$. 3 h  |      WXWX_``WX$u;<9 & F`9r%D[{%YIz"#?@ & F & F & F & F@QR}~*gTW`W1Fu & F & F & F & F S p ! !@!A!!!$"%"u"""""##=#{# & F & F & F & F{##$O$p$$$$%Z%%%%C&& ' '''P(Q(b(c((((() & F & F & F))))**&*X*******B++++F,,,,!-O---. & F & F & F ^`/ =!"#$%<@< NormalCJaJmH sH tH DA@D Default Paragraph FontZi@Z  Table Normal :V 4 l4a _H(k@(No List (D z z z z z z z $/"(%'!-.[Ge9y3h|WXW X _ `     W X $u;<9r%D[{%YIz"#?@QR}~*gTW`W1FuSp @A$%u={OpZC ! !!!P"Q"b"c"""""####$$&$X$$$$$$$B%%%%F&&&&!'O'''(0@0P0P0P0P0P0P0P 0P 0P 0P 0P0P0P 0P 0P 0P 0P 0P 0P0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 000000000 0 0 0000000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0000000000000000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0000000000000000000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0-.[Ge9y3h|WXW X _ `     W (00000000 0 0 0 000 0 0 0 0 0 08888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888888. 9@{#). !.8@0( ȁ>@8 B S  ?
