1 M/J ORCHESTRA M/J ORCHESTRA 3 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 this course 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. 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.

10 ASSESSMENT RUBRIC 4 Points (Advanced) A score of four is a response in which the student demonstrates a thorough understanding of the music concepts and/or procedures embodied in the task. The student has responded correctly to the task, used musically sound procedures, and provided clear and complete explanations and interpretations. 3 Points (Proficient) A score of three is a response in which the student demonstrates an understanding of the music concepts and/or procedures embodied in the task. The students response to the task is essentially correct with the musical procedures used and the explanations and interpretations provided demonstrating an essential but less than thorough understanding. The response may contain minor flaws that reflect inattentive execution of musical procedures or indications of some misunderstanding of the underlying music concepts and/or procedures. 2 Points (Basic) A score of two indicates that the student has demonstrated only a partial understanding of the music concepts and/or procedures embodied in the task. Although the student may have used the correct approach to obtaining a solution or may have provided a correct solution, the students work lacks an essential understanding of the underlying music concepts. 1 Point (Emerging) A score of one indicates that the student has demonstrated a very limited understanding of the music concepts and/or procedures embodied in the task. The students response is incomplete and exhibits many flaws. Although the students response has addressed some of the conditions of the task, the student reached an inadequate conclusion and/or provided reasoning that was faulty or incomplete. The response exhibits many flaws or may be incomplete. 0 Points A score of zero indicates that the student has provided a completely incorrect or non interpretable response or no response at all.

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. This course may also require students to obtain a musical instrument (e.g., borrow, rent, purchase) from an outside source. 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.1.2 Compare, using correct music vocabulary, the aesthetic impact of a performance to one's own hypothesis of the composer's intent. Assessing our own and others artistic work, using critical-thinking, problem-solving, and decision- making skills, is central to artistic growth. MU.68.C.2.1 Critique personal performance, experiment with a variety of solutions, and make appropriate adjustments with guidance from teachers and peers. 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. Development of skills, techniques, and processes in the arts strengthens our ability to remember, focus on, process, and sequence information. MU.68.S.2.1 MU.68.S.2.2 Perform music from memory to demonstrate knowledge of the musical structure. Transfer performance techniques from familiar to unfamiliar pieces.
17 Through purposeful practice, artists learn to manage, master, and refine simple, then complex, skills and techniques. MU.68.S.3.1 MU.68.S.3.2 MU.68.S.3.3 MU.68.S.3.4 Sing and/or play age-appropriate repertoire expressively. Demonstrate proper vocal or instrumental technique. Sight-read standard exercises and simple repertoire. Compare written notation to aural examples and analyze for accuracy of rhythm and pitch. MU.68.S.3.6 Develop and demonstrate efficient rehearsal strategies to apply skills and techniques. 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 MU.68.O.3.2 Describe how the combination of instrumentation and expressive elements in a musical work can convey a specific thought, idea, mood, and/or image. Perform the expressive elements of a musical work indicated by the musical score and/or conductor, and transfer new knowledge and experiences to other musical works. 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. 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. INNOVATION, TECHNOLOGY, and the FUTURE: Curiosity, creativity, and the challenges of artistic problems drive innovation and adaptation of new and emerging technologies. Careers in and related to the arts significantly and positively impact local and global economies. MU.68.F.2.1 Describe several routes a composition or performance could travel from creator to consumer. 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.

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. The structural rules and conventions of an art form serve as both a foundation and departure point for creativity. MU.68.O.2.2 Demonstrate knowledge of major and minor tonalities through performance and composition. Every art form uses its own unique language, verbal and non-verbal, to document and communicate with the world. MU.68.O.3.1 MU.68.O.3.2 Describe how the combination of instrumentation and expressive elements in a musical work can convey a specific thought, idea, mood, and/or image. Perform the expressive elements of a musical work indicated by the musical score and/or conductor, and transfer new knowledge and experiences to other musical works. 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.
