E-Portfolio, Music, Term 2, 2019, Mrs Osgood

Music - E-Portfolio Sample

Achievement objectives:

Communicating and Interpreting:

Level 3:

Prepare and present brief performances of music, using performance skills and techniques.

Level 4:

Prepare, rehearse, and present performance of music, using performance skills and techniques.

Learning Outcomes:

This term we have been learning how to play some new songs on the keyboard, guitar, ukulele and the bucket drums.

We learnt to play the song “Sunflower” using chords on the ukulele.

We also learnt how to read guitar tab and we played “Eye of the Tiger”.

On the keyboard we had the opportunity to learn to play lots of songs including the Minecraft theme, the Avengers theme, the Halo theme, the Game of thrones theme and many more.

The instrument I enjoy playing the most is keyboard.

I liked playing this instrument the most because all I have to do is push buttons and it makes noise.

Next time I would like to learn to play mincraft theme.

Elaboration on this Achievement Objective:

This means students will apply the properties of multiplication and division (commutative, distributive, associative and inverse) to number problems, particularly those requiring multiplication and division. Students should exercise critical choice in their method of calculation - mental, machine or paper - and recognise situations in which estimation should be used, including the checking of calculated answers. Strategies expected at Level Four include: using common factors and multiples, for example 37 + 41 + 40 + 38 = as 4 x 40 – 4, using the distributive property, for example 24 x 36 = 20 x 36 + 4 x 36, 9 x 78 = 9 x 80 – 9 x 2, or 276 ÷ 12 = 240 ÷ 12 + 36 ÷ 12, using the associative property, for example 12 x 33 = 4 x 99, or 216 ÷ 12 = 216 ÷ 2 ÷ 2 ÷ 3, and inverse operations (reversing), for example 354 ÷ 6 = as 6 x = 354. This objective also involves calculating powers, for example 43 = 4 x 4 x 4 = 64, and factorials, for example 4! = 1 x 2 x 3 x 4 = 24. Students should have strong mental strategies for operations on whole numbers but also accurately carry out standard written algorithms, particularly for multi-digit multiplication and division. Level Four corresponds to the Advanced Multiplicative stage of the number framework.

We have specifically been learning the divisibility rules for 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, e.g. 276 is divisible by 3 because 2 + 7 + 6 = 15. By knowing these rules, we can use our knowledge to solve problems. Below are examples of work showing how this skill has been mastered.

Self Reflection:

In this sample of learning I learned how to know if something divisible by different numbers.

My next step is to use this strategy on higher more confusing numbers.
