What can be Learned From Research on music and learning • Students need to experience and understand the developmentally appropriate building blocks of mathematics to insure academic success later on (NAEYC, 2007). • Both music and mathematics have many connections, especially in patterning. • Brain research indicates that music instruction prepares the brain for mathematics and reading instruction.
What we Learned Continued • Skill-building music instruction helps mathematical and reading ability. • The brain benefits from music in ways that help mathematical and language arts understanding. • Countries where music is an equal required part of curriculum have top ranking mathematics scores (Jenson, 2000).
What we Learned Continued • It is estimated that as many as 30 million students do not have an education that involves music. • As budgets shrink music and arts programs are first to be cut (DiMaio, 2006).
Music connections • 4/4 Meter • (4 beats repeated over and over) • Beat (steady like a heart beat) • Rhythm (usually fits with the words) Try each one out with body percussion as you: • Clap, snap, pat legs twice • Combine all three • Add instruments
Arts Connectionpoem with Instruments • Crescent Quarter Gibbous Full • Looking at the moon is never dull • Martha Avant, BTS Specialist, Davis District
Sung to the tune of: Oh My Darling Clementine Oh the moon, we see it shining, Like a sphere, it is so bright, Cause the moon it is reflecting Suns own beaming, streaming light Moon’s appearance, it is lovely While it hangs in our night sky, And the moon it is rotating On its axis as it flies That old moon it likes to travel Round our Earth so constantly One full path around our Earth Is called an orbit you will see Oh the moon, it is much smaller ¾ smaller than our Earth, And with craters its been covered Since its airless, windless birth - repeat first stanza. c Leslie Bertram 2 2013
Moonlight Sonata & Crayon resist Art • Materials: “Moonlight Sonata” by Beethoven, • Art paper, Crayons, Paint Brushes, and water colored blue by water colors. • While the music plays and recalling what they have read, students will Draw or trace a circle coloring with crayons ½ that resembles the Earth and ½ that resembles the Moon. They may include other planets, stars etc. • After they have colored their picture heavily and completely, they will take some blue colored water and wash the entire picture with it. • They will attach their completed Diamonte Poem to the painting
Incorporating Speaking & Listening • SL3.5- Create engaging audio recordings of stories or poems that demonstrate fluid reading at an understandable pace, add visual displays when appropriate to emphasize or enhance certain facts or details. • See Poems • Instructions for Educreations provided

Assessment Timeline • SAGE Formative Fall 2013 • Teachers may start using this to guide their instruction • Teachers can start creating their own tests and adding their own items Spring 2014 • SAGE Summative Spring 2014 • No instant scoring available yet until cut scores are determined • ALL Assessments FALL 2014
Question types When students get to think about how to solve or respond the depth of knowledge increases • Natural Response • Students type in a written response • Equation Response • Response is an expression, equation, inequality, or number • Hot Text • Active text. Portions of text can be highlighted or dragged to one or more response boxes • Graphical Response • Student drags objects, selects regions, or constructs with tools in a graphical space • Simulation • Interactive- Students acts and item responds. Implemented as item or stimuli.

Where is this in THE Utah core? Page 24 – Anchor Standards for Speaking and Listening
Speaking and Listening When I speak I share what I know in my head When I listen I add to my knowledge from what others have said
Speaking and Listening The step that connects reading to writing is speaking and listening
Speaking and Listening Speaking and listening are incorporated through cooperative learning strategies.
Benefits of Cooperative Learning • The benefits of cooperative learning are plentiful. One obvious benefit, of course, is that the kids themselves get to do the talking INSTEAD of the teacher. • Promotes student learning and academic achievement • Increases students' retention of material learned • Enhances students' satisfaction with their learning experience • Helps students develop skills in oral communication • Promotes self-esteem
Cooperative Learning Strategies • Read through the cooperative learning strategies • Meet with your scheduled appointments • 3:00 Appointment Share the cooperative learning strategies you currently use in your classroom and what makes them successful • 6:00 Appointment Share at least one strategy you would like to incorporate this next year and how you think it will benefit your students • 9:00 Appointment Discuss how you would explain the benefits of speaking and listening to a parent.
Quick Write RULES • You must write the whole time. • If you can not think of anything to write, write, “I’m thinking, I’m thinking, etc.” ASSIGNED TOPIC How will the information gleaned from the two articles and your experiences over the last three days effect student learning in your classroom? Cite evidence and examples.
