Anticipatory Set
The hook to grab students attention.
These are actions and statements by the
teacher to relate the experiences of the
students to the objectives of the lesson,
To put students into a receptive frame of
mind.
To focus student attention on the
lesson.
To create an organizing framework
for the ideas, principles, or
information that is to follow
(advanced organizers)
An anticipatory set is used any time a
different activity or new concept is to be
introduced.
How do you intend to engage your
students in thinking during the
Anticipatory Set?
Why are you using it at this point in
your lesson?

Follow the style of the conductor. Myself and individuals from the
ensembles will give conduct the ensemble on a concert F to see
different styles shown. This is meant to get students engaged with
watching and style production. Students will use a headline to describe
the piece.

The strategy I intend to use is Headline

I am using this strategy here because: to help students synthesize the
piece and the desired style

Closure
Those actions or statements by a teacher
that are designed to bring a lesson
presentation to an appropriate conclusion.
Used to help students bring things

1. Quick run through of the

piece
2. While you are writing the
headline I would like to try
an experiment
3. T. writes the rating up on
the board
4. Concert F conducting
exercise
5. Evaluate the engagement
the students have and what
they will need to have as a
model
6. Model with only percussion,

Connect-extend-challenge

The strategy I intend to use is Connect Extend-Challenge

I am using this strategy here because: this helps and seeks out further
insight to style and what is being understood.
On your notecard I need three things, headline, ensemble rating (1-10)
and connect-extend-challenge, hand me your notecard as you leave.

together in their own minds, to make

they have arrived at an important
point in the lesson or the end of a
lesson.

CLOSURE?

The strategy I intend to use is Exit Ticket

I am using this strategy here because: to collect formative assessment

Why are you using it at this point in

your lesson?

Differentiation:
Differentiation should be
embedded throughout your
whole lesson!!
This is to make sure you have
met the needs of your students
on IEPS or 504

Advanced students are given the chance to lead and have a say in
ensemble participation
In the case of a St. having trouble they may use a partner for help and
gain insight from scaffolding of the teaching.

To modify: If the activity is too advanced

for a child, how will you modify it so that
they can be successful?
To extend: If the activity is too easy for a
child, how will you extend it to develop
their emerging skills?

Post Lesson Reflection

1. To what extent were lesson objectives achieved? (Utilize
assessment data to justify your level of achievement)
I feel that I mostly was able to hit my objective. I have found that with the
content area of music is difficult to truly align standards and objectives. In
order to feel like I was very deliberate in my lesson plan writing and the
teaching I was able to do. I hope that in the future I can hit the objective
more as I was close but not accurate.
2. What changes, omissions, or additions to the lesson would
you make if you were to teach again?
I was confident about my overall structure of my lesson. However, I need
to have more student engagement and I would try to talk much less. I
would also be more careful of time management as I was able to meet
some areas of issues in the piece but not all.
3. What do you envision for the next lesson? (Continued practice,
reteach content, etc.)
The next lesson which will be in the very near future will but a solid
memory strengthening focused lesson to prepare for the concert. I have
enough data to analyze and be able to make a plan to continue working
on style and overall ensemble balance.
