Learning objective
- To compose and notate a salsa-inspired melody
National curriculum
Pupils should be taught to:
- Play and perform in solo and ensemble contexts, using their voices and playing musical instruments with increasing accuracy, fluency, control and expression
- Improvise and compose music for a range of purposes using the interrelated dimensions of music
- Listen with attention to detail and recall sounds with increasing aural memory
- Use and understand staff and other musical notations
Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: This lesson provides an opportunity for you to check in with pupils individually to see how they are getting on with all aspects of their tuned percussion learning and is therefore an opportunity to support those who need it.
Pupils working at greater depth: Can be challenged to create their own rhythms instead of using the ones provided. Depending on how complex the rhythms are, they may not be able to write them down — this is fine as they have already completed the initial notation activity.
