Acts as a springboard to other challenging and ultimately rewarding experiences.Assessment: Create, learn, and perform all of the music for the opera and all the dramatiwork that goes along with it.

  3. Music Lesson Plan Continued Introduction: View a previous student opera. Have students split into groups for a mind mapping activity to determine a plot for opera. Each group must come up with a plot associated with mosquito control. Class will vote on most popular. Procedures: 1) Have students research stories to base opera and to find a way to tie it into the core curriculum. 2) Provide fundamental knowledge of some of the basics of composition. 3) Compose short melody following guidelines (i.e. key, meter, length, note values, range). 4) Small groups of 5 compose their own melodies using various Orff instruments. They in turn will perform these melodies applying chords they have built on the specific key (probably C). 5) Assign roles (major character, supporting character, member of the crowd, light techs, stage techs, props, directors assistants, narrator, musicians). 6) Through class voting, lyrics are decided, melodies are composed and chords chosen. Each class is in charge of one song. 7) Rehearse opera. 8) Perform opera. Closure: Performance, cast party. Reflect on things that they might do different next time in class. Put together an album of pictures and memorabilia of the performance for the school to view. Materials: Art instruction, library, area businesses for prop donations, media for advertising (TV, radio, newspaper) Hower, E. (1999). Creating an Opera with Seventh Graders.
