Purpose:To own my music my own by practicing it correctly and repeatedly until I cannot play it wrong.
Objective: Given a piece of music students will perform the correct note in the correct rhythm at the correct time
with correct technique and musical intent at a constantly improving rate.
Essential Question: How does the way I play my part and instrument positively contribute the the experience of
the ensemble and audience?

Anticipatory Set (Warm up): Use blues scales to warm up S and as a tool for them to use later in the workshop.
Time: 15 minutes
Direct Instructions: Give productive comments on musical performance to individuals, or groups. Teach a simple
chord progression (modified blues from “Straight No Chaser”), and what the chord tones are.
Structured Practice: Given multiple attempts the T will use scaffolding techniques to help S achieve the goal. T
will have S play 1 chord tone a beat for a measure (IE. C, E, G, Bb) to reinforce “safe” notes. T Will let S come up
with different patterns. T Will then go around the room and have soloists use only chord tones, and the blues scale.
Active Participation: S will use techniques given by T to help achieve objective, such as rate yourself, thumbs
up/down, and tell your neighbor. S will give each other constructive, useful feedback on solos.
Check for Understanding: Teacher will assess student progress aurally throughout lesson.
Independent Practice: S will mark the parts they had trouble with for practice at home, at lunch, or after school.
Closure: S will apply concepts of mini lesson in a run through. S will then give feedback to neighbor on the
application of learned concepts.
