Waylen Wants to Jam Lesson: Learning That My Beat Counts Goals: 1. To build listening skills 2.To develop attention span Focus: Being part of a group Big Idea: It's fun to be part of a group. Knowledge acquired: 1. Gains an understanding of what the beat is on a drumline 2. Experiences creativity by identifying a sound to add to their drumline 3. Gains an understanding that their role in a group is equally as important as every role Skills to demonstrate learning: 1.Student tries to keep the beat during his/her drumline routine demonstration 2.Student acts as part of a group, paying attention, so he/she is in rhythm with everyone else on their drumline. Reflection, Assessment and Evaluation • Reflection: Students draw a picture of their group performing together and write a sentence describing how it feels to be part of their group. Evidence of Learning: Student demonstrates the ability to listen and attend by participating in a group drumline. Criteria: Rubric for instrument identification 2 points= student keeps the beat for 8 counts or more 1 point= student participates throughout the drumline activity 0 points= student refuses to be part of a drumline group. • Set Students Up For Success: - Ask four students to volunteer. Teach them to clap to a steady rhythm while counting the beats 1-8. Then ask each volunteer to add a sound, taking turns, while keeping the beat. Example: stomp, stomp, clap, clap, snap, snap, shouting “I-I’ like Waylen did in his story. Have class join the volunteer drumline by clapping to their rhythm. Divide class into groups of four students. Ask each group to create their own drumline routine for 8-24 beats. (Fewer beats for younger children) Encourage students to be creative in using different sounds. Have each group identify a name for their group. Children who struggle with rhythm may clap to first or last beat to participate. • Task to demonstrate knowledge: Have each group share their routine with the class. Encourage the class to listen carefully and try to do the routine with each drumline group.
