How to Help Students with Special Needs in Music Class | Cued In - The J.W. Pepper Musi... - 0 views

  •  
    How to make accommodations for music students with special needs has always been a topic of conversation; however, as author Mary Rogelstad suggests, we have nothing to fear; among her list of recommended strategies for effective differentiation are items like teaching lessons that appeal to multiple senses and varying the speed of the content, or repertoire, to be learned and performed. As you can see, Rogelstad provides a sort of manual that helps us help our students to reach their maximum potential.

Music Education with Digital Technology - Google Books - 0 views

  •  
    This book is a music education wiki focusing on music education with digital technology. Information in this book unfolds how teachers use technology in music classrooms, the pros and cons of technology, and how to effectively use technology in the classroom. One fascinating information I picked from this book is the use of classroom mobile phones. Almost every student in high school has access to a mobile phone. These mobile phones have a new software called "blue tooth" which enables one to share a file from a phone to a computer or to another person's phone. This tool can be utilised in class during composition, for students to share their compositions and get feedback from each other. These compositions can then be sent to a computer and students edit their compositions using soft wares like Audacity.

Soundtrap - Make music online - 0 views

  •  
    Sound trap is an online Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) that one can use to create loops and tracks online. One doesn't need to download any software to install sound trap, it is typically online and is a very good resource for teaching creativity, collaboration, communication, and critical thinking (4 Cs). I like sound trap because it enables students and teachers to continue work anywhere any time (in and outside the classroom). Teachers can easily add projects and invite students to work on the project any time anywhere. The fact that one can invite another person to work on the same project and/or even record a track together is mesmerizing. With sound trap, it is easy to record any instrument, download a track, and best of all, you can record using a microphone and/or use the free loops, MIDI, and effects that come with the software. A school has to purchase the software and add students to start using it. However, the software has a one month free trial which teachers can try out with their students before purchasing.

7 Effective Ways to Use Acka Backa in the Music Classroom - PRIMARILY MUSIC - 0 views

    • cheyroseb
       
      Every minute counts!
    • cheyroseb
       
      I love elementary music for this reason-- lesson activities are themed and have fun games attached to them!
  • ou definitely don’t want them just sitting down waiting for the game to end!
  • ...6 more annotations...
    • cheyroseb
       
      This connects to the article I annotated about teaching solfege :)
  • This song is a perfect song to teach and reinforce those rhythms in the lower grades (K-2)
  • Acka Backa is made up of so, la, and mi so if you are looking for a song to teach those pitches this is it!
  • Whoever is out goes to the center of the circle and selects one of the four voices. Whatever voice he or she selects is how we will perform the song the next round.
    • cheyroseb
       
      I like that this version keeps them involved in the game even after they get "out"
  • Use Acka Backa to reinforce steady beat with your little ones. You can have them clap the beat, play rhythm sticks or pass around a ball or bean bag on the beat.
    • cheyroseb
       
      I like the variety of options presented here-- some classes will be able to handle certain options better than others will.
  • Because they have learned Acka Backa in Kindergarten it’s a great way to bring it back when you’re teaching meter and have them feel the beat. I teach Acka Backa in 2/4 meter but it can also be used to teach 4/4.
    • cheyroseb
       
      I think it would be a great example to show older classes *why* it is in 2/4 compared to 4/4 (beat stresses, important words, etc.)
