1 Music Curriculum Grade 7: Unit One 1 P a g e

2 Course Description The goal of Unit One is to build the vocabulary of students so they are able to understand what the possibilities are when they create, perform, or respond to music. In the primary grades students were mainly building their music term vocabulary. In elementary we began to explore various ways music has been used as a form of expression. In middle school, we begin to explore how music has changed over time. The topics are set-up to follow the social studies curriculum. Therefore, in sixth grade students will deepen their understanding of the musical elements while also exploring how music was created, performed, and responded to during the Middle Ages, the Reformation, and the Renaissance. 2 P a g e

9 9 P a g e Interdisciplinary Connections Although schools are set up with each discipline receiving separate instruction and, with the exception of some interdisciplinary approaches, there is very little collaboration between each discipline. However, there are numerous natural connections between each discipline as the skills and knowledge learned in one subject become tools to learn and develop skills in another discipline. Whenever possible these connections should be utilized and students should be made aware of this use. Language Arts This is perhaps one of the easiest connections music teachers can make. Gordon s whole approach is based on the connection between the development of language skills and the development of audiation. The Orff processes uses language for rhythm development and to teach form, as well as poems and stories as source materials for creations (you don t need to go out and find poems and stories to set to music, ask the language arts teacher what they re using and use that). One way to explore a culture s music is through the rhythmic cadence and pitch frequencies used in the language and what is also found in the music. The creative process is also the same. Paterson Public Schools uses the Writer s Workshop that teaches students to generate ideas, create a rough draft, edit and revise the work, and then publish it. Change publish to perform and you also have the process for writing music as well, which is probably why the students write in composition notebooks. Specific examples include (but are not limited to): Unit 1 Reading Literature & Informational Text; Informational/Explanatory Writing Analyze a piece of music and give examples to demonstrate they are correct as well as draw inferences about expressive options. Be able to identify the main theme of a piece of music. Interpret the meaning of song lyrics (poetry). Determine how the motive or theme fits into the overall composition. Write an informative/explanatory essay about the use of the elements of music in a composition of their choosing. Mathematics

10 Science Mathematicians, Pythagoras being one of the earliest recorded contributors, have helped us understand what turns sounds into music. This is another subject with numerous natural connections to music, especially when it comes to pattern recognition, rhythm measured in fractions of a beat, the use of ratios for intervals, understanding the works of Arnold Schoenberg, etc.. Specific examples include (but are not limited to): Unit 1 Operations on Rational Numbers & Expressions Absolute value, solve equations with positive and negative numbers, convert a rational number to a decimal, rewrite algebraic expressions in equivalent form Unfortunately, acoustics is not well covered in the science curriculum. However, by teaching acoustic principles we can compensate for this oversight as well as introduce students to a career they might otherwise overlook. With some creativity you can usually use the standards for the physical sciences to justify explorations in acoustics. However, most of our connections to the rest of the Science standards will be in the form of repertoire selections that incorporate the topic (such as songs about the seasons, particular animals, etc.). Specific examples include (but are not limited to): Unit 1 Structure and Properties of Matter How is it that everything is made of stardust?; Study atomic and molecular scale; Crosscutting concepts include cause & effect, scale, proportion, & quantity, structure & function, interdependence of science, engineering, & technology, and the influence of science, engineering, & technology on society & the natural world Unit 2 Interactions of Matter How can we trace synthetic materials back to natural ingredients?; Crosscutting concepts include cause & effect, scale, proportion, & quantity, structure & function, interdependence of science, engineering, & technology, and the influence of science, engineering, & technology on society & the natural world 10 P a g e

11 Social Studies The arts have always been influenced by political, social, and economic factors, so studying cultures through the lens of music can also help students better understand these three components of their own culture and cultures throughout the world. Specific examples include (but are not limited to): Unit 1 World Religions: Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, and Hinduism The rise of religion, monotheism vs polytheism, Details of the five major world religions 11 P a g e
