1 M/J CHORUS 1 CURRICULUM MAPS Grades 6-8 Vision Statement of Volusia County Schools Through the individual commitment of all, our students will graduate with the knowledge, skills, and values necessary to be successful contributors to our democratic society.
2 The School District of Volusia County The School Board of Volusia County Mrs. Linda Costello, Chairman Mrs. Ida Wright, Vice Chairman Mrs. Linda Cuthbert Dr. John Hill Mrs. Melody Johnson Superintendent of Schools Mr. James T. Russell Chief Academic Officer Ms. Teresa Marcks Executive Director K 12 Curriculum Ms. Barbara Head Performing Arts Specialist Dr. Monty Musgrave
3 Interpreting the Curriculum Maps Measurement Topic: The overarching organizational structure used to group content/concepts within the curriculum map Pacing: The recommended time period within the year for instruction related to the essential questions to occur Essential Questions: The overarching question(s) that will serve to guide instruction and to push students to higher levels of thinking. Essential questions should guide students to the heart of the big idea or content and should meet the following characteristics: A. Endurance: important for the long term B. Leverage: applicable to or connected with many academic disciplines or concepts C. Readiness for the next level of learning: prepares students for success in the next grade/course D. Clarity: provides clear and common understanding E. Measurable: able to be assessed Concepts/Content: A list of the big ideas, broad topics, or major underlying concepts covered in the development of the essential questions Learning Targets/Skills: The content knowledge, processes, and enabling skills that will ensure successful mastery of the essential questions Benchmarks: The Sunshine State Next Generation Standards aligned with the learning targets and skills (see next page) Key Terminology: The content vocabulary and other key terms and phrases with which students should be familiar and that support mastery of the learning targets, skills and essential questions Activities and Resources: A suggested listing of high quality, appropriate materials, strategies, lessons, textbooks, videos and other media sources that are aligned with the learning targets, skills and essential questions Assessment: A list of district required and optional classroom assessments at are aligned with the learning targets, skills and essential questions. Assessments should include formative assessments to monitor progress and inform instruction as well as summative assessments for grading and reporting purposes. ************************************************************* The curriculum maps for vocal music are divided into four sections, which align with the Big Ideas of the NGSSS: C Critical Thinking and Reflection; S Skills, Techniques, and Processes; O Organizational Structure; H Historical and Global Connections; F Innovation, Technology, and the Future. It is common practice that many or most of the Big ideas,, and the concepts associated with them, are taught simultaneously in every lesson (hence the Spiral Curriculum ). The purpose of delineation into separate sections is for assessment purposes. Teachers are encouraged to use most or all of the maps simultaneously. Further, the lessons provided in each map (which align with the Organizing Principles) are suggestions; teachers may use additional or substitute lessons/materials as long as the learning targets, vocabulary, standards, and essential questions are addressed. It is hoped that by using this format, teachers will focus assessments guided by the learning targets of the maps while continuing to provide a comprehensive course of music study.
4 NEXT GENERATION SUNSHINE STATE STANDARDS USERS GUIDE FOR ALL USERS: A coding system is used in all curriculum guides to identify NGSSS and Course Content Statements. Benchmark Code: For easy reference, each strand, standard, and benchmark has been assigned a unique identification code. For example: MU.68.C.1.1 Content Area Grade Level Big Idea Enduring Understanding Benchmark Big Ideas C Critical Thinking and Reflection S Skills, Techniques, and Processes O Organizational Structure H Historical and Global Connections F Innovation, Technology, and the Future The first two letters of the code identify the content area (e.g., MU for music). The next number(s) identify the grade level. The next letter (C, S, O, H, or F) identifies the big idea. The next number identifies the enduring understanding, and the last number identifies the benchmark under the grade cluster within the standard.

Public performances may serve as a culmination of specific instructional goals. Students may be required to attend and/or participate in rehearsals and performances outside the school day to support, extend, and assess learning in the classroom. CRITICAL THINKING and REFLECTION: Critical and creative thinking, self-expression, and communication with others are central to the arts. Cognition and reflection are required to appreciate, interpret, and create with artistic intent. MU.68.C.1.1 Develop strategies for listening to unfamiliar musical works. MU.68.C.1.4 Identify, aurally, a variety of vocal styles and ensembles. Assessing our own and others artistic work, using critical-thinking, problem-solving, and decision- making skills, is central to artistic growth. MU.68.C.2.2 Critique, using correct music vocabulary, changes in one's own or others' musical performance resulting from practice or rehearsal. SKILLS, TECHNIQUES, and PROCESSES: Through dance, music, theatre, and visual art, students learn that beginners, amateurs, and professionals benefit from working to improve and maintain skills over time. The arts are inherently experiential and actively engage learners in the processes of creating, interpreting, and responding to art. MU.68.S.1.1 Improvise rhythmic and melodic phrases to accompany familiar songs and/or standard harmonic progressions. MU.68.S.1.3 Arrange a short musical piece by manipulating melody, form, rhythm, and/or voicing. MU.68.S.1.4 Sing or play melodies by ear with support from the teacher and/or peers. Through purposeful practice, artists learn to manage, master, and refine simple, then complex, skills and techniques. MU.68.S.3.1 Sing and/or play age-appropriate repertoire expressively. MU.68.S.3.3 Sight-read standard exercises and simple repertoire. MU.68.S.3.5 Notate rhythmic phrases and/or melodies, in varying simple meters, performed by someone else. ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE: Works in dance, music, theatre, and visual art are organized by elements and principles that guide creators, interpreters, and responders. Understanding the organizational structure of an art form provides a foundation for appreciation of artistic works and respect for the creative process. MU.68.O.1.1 Compare performances of a musical work to identify artistic choices made by performers. Every art form uses its own unique language, verbal and non-verbal, to document and communicate with the world. MU.68.O.3.1 Describe how the combination of instrumentation and expressive elements in a musical work can convey a specific thought, idea, mood, and/or image. HISTORICAL and GLOBAL CONNECTIONS: Experiences in the arts foster understanding, acceptance, and enrichment among individuals, groups, and cultures from around the world and across time. Through study in the arts, we learn about and honor others and the worlds in which they live(d). MU.68.H.1.1 Describe the functions of music from various cultures and time periods.
15 The arts reflect and document cultural trends and historical events, and help explain how new directions in the arts have emerged. MU.68.H.2.3 Classify the literature being studied by genre, style, and/or time period. Connections among the arts and other disciplines strengthen learning and the ability to transfer knowledge and skills to and from other fields. MU.68.H.3.1 Identify connections among music and other content areas and/or contexts through interdisciplinary collaboration. MU.68.H.3.2 Discuss how the absence of music would affect other content areas and contexts. INNOVATION, TECHNOLOGY, and the FUTURE: Curiosity, creativity, and the challenges of artistic problems drive innovation and adaptation of new and emerging technologies. The 21st-century skills necessary for success as citizens, workers, and leaders in a global economy are embedded in the study of the arts. MU.68.F.3.2 Investigate and discuss laws that protect intellectual property, and practice safe, legal, and responsible acquisition and use of musical media. Additional Required Benchmarks: MU.68.S.3.2 Demonstrate proper vocal or instrumental technique. LACC.6.SL.1 Comprehension and Collaboration LACC.6.SL.1.1 Engage effectively in a range of collaborative discussions (one-on-one, in groups, and teacher-led) with diverse partners on grade 6 topics, texts, and issues, building on others ideas and expressing their own clearly. LACC.6.SL.1.2 Interpret information presented in diverse media and formats (e.g., visually, quantitatively, orally) and explain how it contributes to a topic, text, or issue under study. LACC.6.SL.1.3 Delineate a speaker s argument and specific claims, distinguishing claims that are supported by reasons and evidence from claims that are not. LACC.6.SL.2 Presentation of Knowledge and Ideas LACC.6.SL.2.4 Present claims and findings, sequencing ideas logically and using pertinent descriptions, facts, and details to accentuate main ideas or themes; use appropriate eye contact, adequate volume, and clear pronunciation. LACC.68.RST.2 Craft and Structure LACC.68.RST.2.4 Determine the meaning of symbols, key terms, and other domain-specific words and phrases as they are used in a specific scientific or technical context relevant to grades. LACC.68.WHST.2 Production and Distribution of Writing LACC.68.WHST.2.4 Produce clear and coherent writing in which the development, organization, and style are appropriate to task, purpose, and audience. LACC.68.WHST.3 Research to Build and Present Knowledge LACC.68.WHST.3.9 Draw evidence from informational texts to support analysis reflection, and research. DA.68.S.2.1 Sustain focused attention, respect, and discipline during classes and performances. MACC.K12.MP Mathematical Practices MACC.K12.MP.5 Use appropriate tools strategically. MACC.K12.MP.6 Attend to precision. MACC.K12.MP.7 Look for and make use of structure.
