[Teacher Page] Introduction

The classical period occurred from 1750-1820 and arose quickest throughout Europe. Although music had been around for hundreds of years before this time period, the Classical period was one of the most influential on the world, releasing some of the best composers and music that is still popular today.

While researching and exploring the Classical time period, it is most important to:

Research the time period and find out what was going on in society(ex: people, customs, government)Explore at least 3 composers that became famous throughout this time period (after you explore, name your top 3 favorite)Become familiar with instruments that became popular (list one composer that used your favorite researched instrument) Find 3 of your favorite songs, written by famous composers of the time (make a note of them)Find out and explain, in your own words, why it was called the Classical Time Period and what exactly contributed to that name.

Remember while researching each task to take specific notes on everything you find!

Here is the best part. You do not have to spend outside time in the library or in books to complete this project. You get to use the internet!

Once you and your group can check off each task check mark, it is your job to give a brief 4-5 minute presentation on 1 of the 5 tasks given. You will also be responsible for taking notes on other people’s presentations, and jotting down information they found that you didn’t.

HAVE FUN!

Introduction (Teacher)

This WebQuest is designed to help students become more familiar with the Classical Time Period of Music. Separate the class into groups of 4 or 5 students to a group and allow them to work together to accomplish the tasks given. While they are researching, it’s important that the teacher gives specific instructions for each group to be taking good notes while they are exploring so they have information for their presentations at the end. The presentation should be 4-5 minutes long and each group should pick one task to focus on.

Standard 5•Grades 9-12As students in grades 9-12 extend their knowledge, what they know and are able to doincludes• identifying and explaining the features of a given musical work in its historical orcultural context (for example: many African songs are constructed in the call andresponse form because they originally functioned as work songs.

Conclusion

The Process (Teacher)Before the students can start, they have to be divided into groups of 4-5. Keep in mind which students you are putting together regarding strengths, weaknesses, ability to work well or not well with others, etc. Allow them a courteous amount of time to complete the project, take thorough notes, and finish their 4-5 minute project for their own group. Make sure you are monitoring each groups progress everyday. __________________________________________________________________________
