What happens in music class?
The typical music class is structured in the following way:
1st – Warm-Up, about 5 min. We warm-up our bodies, voices, and brains.
2nd – High Concentration. Here we will read, write, or think about music. (This can be done at the SMARTboard or with other activities.)
3rd – Change of Pace. Music game or movement activity that relates to what we were working on.
4th – Moderate Concentration. This is similar to High Concentration, but more activity.
5th – Light Concentration. Normally when we learn new songs, games, or activities.
6th – Line Up quietly to prepare for the hallway and return to class.
This chart is posted at the front of the music room for students to see the sequence. Sometimes, they activities will change a bit, but the idea is essentially the same. Here are a few other signs the students may see:
