7th and 8th Grade Band

We have our student selected piece! It is called Fantasia Themes! I would like to begin rehearsal on this piece as possible but we must have Mars and Academic Festival Overture ready first. Last rehearsal we were able to polish Mars a bit! We will start today with Academic Festival Overture.

Learning Targets:

1) I can play the Bb, Eb, F, major scales and the chromatic scale at a "3" on our 4 point rating scale.
2) I can explain the purpose of key signatures and observe that key signature while playing a piec
3) I can play Mars and Academic Festival Overture at at least a 3 on our 4 point rating scale.
4) I can recognize tonic and dominant chords by ear on the piano.


Lesson  Plan: 
1) Welcome
2) New music procedures - Extra copies are in your cubbies! (1 minute)
3) Section Leaders - what do you need? (1 minute))
4) Scales (2 minutes)
5) Off podium (music and question time)
6) Run Academic Festival Overture! Self Assess. Is it a 3 or 4? If not why not?

    Students collaborate on setting goals for Wednesday's rehearsal
