Body Percussion “Raps”
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

Summary: The grades 4 and 5 music classes at OES had the opportunity to experience, create, practice and perform body percussion raps. I taught them a Hand Rap, which we practiced and performed together using various sounds objects. We figured out the rhythms to go with the Hand Rap, then enjoyed some videos of other groups using body percussions rhythms to create performances. We discussed and analyzed these performances before creating our own criteria for a composition assignment using body percussion. Finally the students were divided into small groups and given class time to create their own body percussion compositions, followed by practice and performances.

Grade 4- Communication Tool Creation
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

Summary:
In our split grade of fours and fives, we completed a unit on communication where the
students learned about the different forms of communication: decoders and decoding, signs and symbols, non-verbal communication, First Nations’ oral communication, and the history and evolution of communication. Once we had covered these areas, the summative assignment asked the students to creatively make a new communication tool that may be found in the future.

21st Century Creativity:
This project explored creativity in many ways: to begin, the students created secret messages
for each other and for me; later, they created symbols and signs to indicate something such as a hazard or a danger. Finally, the communication tool project gave the students an opportunity to imagine something never before created that could be used to communicate or to take a tool used today and adjust it in a new way to improve communication.

If You’re Not from the Prairie- Cross Curricular Grade 4
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

This unit integrates ELA and Arts Ed Outcomes in the hopes of the students being able to show what they know through the use of the text, “If You’re Not From the Prairie”.

2. Opening activity: Give students the line “If You’re Not From the Prairie”…. In partners, have students generate a list of things that are unique to Saskatchewan. Encourage them to think of something the other groups will not have on their lists. Post these lists. After reading “If You’re Not From the Prairie”, compare the student-generated lists to the ideas mentioned in the poem. Check off how many student ideas were included in the poem. (Could make it a competition, depending on the class, and have a ‘Saskatchewan' for the pair of students with the most ideas included in the poem)
