1 Prep Performing Arts Program In Term 4, students will continue to be engaged in a program containing units of work which focus upon the elements of music: beat and rhythm, pitch, tempo, dynamics, tone colour, texture, form and style. This term we will pay particular attention to dynamics and style. The aims and objectives of each experience will be as follows: Aesthetic Response: To strengthen the enjoyment and understanding of music To strengthen musical thinking and feeling Aesthetic Research To develop awareness of the expressive elements of music Skills and knowledge: To refine the skills of aural discrimination, to develop music reading and writing and the technique needed to perform musical works To encourage the investigation of music and musicians in a variety of musical cultures Socialization: To encourage social interaction and co-operation with others To find pleasure in shared experiences. (Leask, J, Upbeat Class: Preparatory Level). Using known songs, chants and stories, and others to add to student s repertoire, students will engage in experiences requiring them to listen and perform as per instruction. They will also be given the opportunity to create their own movements or compositions based upon what they have learnt. Some examples of learning experiences include: Using actions songs and dramatized stories; both known and those added to student s repertoire, to understand the musical concepts of loud and soft. Students will use their voice and bodies to demonstrate an understanding, then move on to using instruments in a class band style activity. Students will be given the chance to conduct their band, using learnt signals to instruct their band to play loudly or softly. Using graphic notation, students will compose their own musical scores, which their band will then use to play music with varying dynamic changes.

They will learn an alphabet rap, dance moves to an electronic remix of Johnny Works with One Hammer and will listen to a range of classical music.
