IPI level:Student Active Engaged Learning, Teacher-Led Instruction
Teaching Strategy Utilized: Day 1-Sightread-Introduce/Review Time signature, clef sign, key signature-establish the order of these symbols when sightreading. Discuss sightreading and what singers are expected to do. Read through text (student volunteers) and discuss any word they are not familiar with-explain if necessary. Sing through. Day 2-Sing through song and work for more correct notes. Pay attention to large intervals especially on "there'll be sun"-go over measure slowly and work to match pitches. Look for other intervals that are large and will be places to check for tuning. Day 3-Discuss the 12 and 7 starting in measure 24. Talk about rests and review the time signature-beats per measure. Day 4-Discuss rall. check for prior knowledge. Explain how to perform/Demonstrate (rule at least half of the last measure). Day 5-Introduce the term diction-Demonstrate using speaking, have class practice speaking clearly, then singing. Day 6- Listen in large groups-Soprano, Alto, Tenor/Baritone-Evaluate Day 7-Discuss singing songs from musicals-expressive elements such as breathing, tone color, diction, and dynamics. Ask a student to demonstrate for the class. Point out positives. Practice as a class. Day 8-Perform as if for an audience. Discuss their perspective. Discuss the composers intent and our obligation to perform as written. Discuss the story of the song and how to perform. Day 9-Practice as a large group from memory. Discuss memorizing techniques-have a student share their method. Day 10-Evaluate in small groups.
