Class experience
Course Description: This class will be an interactive exploration of Mariachi music. Learners will start by listening to a musical example and showing the beat of the music by playing a percussion instrument or body percussion. Next, learners will define Mariachi and listen to another example, identifying the instruments heard using an optional coloring activity. Learners will perform movement with a musical selection and finally identify and label instruments in a traditional Mariachi band...
Learners will identify instruments in a Mariachi band and describe Mariachi music. National Music Standard MU:Cn11.0.3a Demonstrate understanding of relationships between music and the other arts, other disciplines, varied contexts, and daily life.
As a music educator for 29 years, the Texas standards for music included identifying, responding and describing music from other cultures. In Texas, Mariachi is part of the state's culture. In addition, I have taught this actual lesson to students in a classroom, usually around the Cinco de Mayo holiday, including some basic facts about the holiday to make connections. I believe it will be a fun lesson to adapt for the virtual platform.
