EXPLANATION OF EDITS:
0:00- Singing and Practicing our Major I and Dominant Triad by singing it. We usually sing the I
chord during warm-ups.
3:27- Showing them specifically what notation I want them to use for their composition, which is
eighth notes together, quarter notes, quarter rests, and half notes in 4/4. I was not looking for
pitch so I made that clear to them. They are just learning how to use noteflight. This step would
be skipped if they already knew the software.
06:25- Telling them I want their melodies in chrome song maker to be “sing-able” and how to
change their settings to mesh well with what we have been singing in class. Making clear they
know they are only using certain colors in certain measures. They are using chrome song lab,
so I drew on the board a visual for what they will be seeing on their computers as they use a
chord progression I have given them.
08:27- My video was deleted, but this was a poetry unit where we researched and wrote our
own poems, and they could share if they wanted. We reviewed our I and V chords together to
make sure they understood the relationship between them again.
09:26- Showing them how to combine their poetry with their melody and rhythm. At this point I
allowed them to use passing tones. I made clear this is a process that might go in different
orders. Told them this is creative, but syllables for words should line up. Told them they could
also omit pitches, but NOT add new ones if they were not a passing tone.
11:48- A student asked for help lining up syllables with the amount of rests they had. It was not
fitting with what they had so I went to help them. I gave them a couple of options for creativity
and showed them how to add in a note that they might already have.
