The Keyboard Family - Musical Instruments and Instrumental Families

(0)
**Lesson six in a 6-part unit of work on musical instruments and instrumental families. ** This lesson covers the keyboard family. HOWEVER This lesson can work as a stand-alone teaching resource for introducing students to keyboard instruments and does not need to be used in conjunction with other lessons in the lesson series The aim of this unit of work is to enable children to learn about music and musical instruments without the requirement of any specialist music teacher, prior musical knowledge, or practical music resources like instruments. This lesson covers the keyboard family. The following topic areas are covered in the lesson: recap of instrumental families, introduction to keyboard family and keyboard instruments, walk-through of individual keyboard instruments, activities. The piano and electric piano are discussed in this lesson. The lesson is structured as a detailed presentation. Questions are asked throughout to help engage students’ attention and allow them to have an active part in their learning. Activities are also involved in the lesson to help students consolidate their knowledge. Activities include the following: mind map activity poster-making/ advertising activity written fact-file activity creative design activity The presentation has 30 slides. For lower level students, it may be necessary to divide the lesson into 2 halves. If this is desirable, I would recommend ending the first lesson at the point where the electric piano walk through begins. Colour is used throughout to aid memory. Animations and transitions are used throughout to engage attention but they are used subtly so as to not become overwhelming or overstimulating.
