01.2.6.5.1
-- Students will describe specific music events in a given aural example, using appropriate terminology
01.2.6.5.3
-- Students will demonstrate knowledge of the basic principles of meter, rhythm, tonality, intervals, chords and harmonic progressions in their analyses of music.
01.2.1.0.1
-- Students will sing independently on pitch and in rhythm, with appropriate timbre, diction and posture, and maintain a steady tempo
01.2.5.5.3

What is an interval?
What makes an interval major, minor, augmented, diminished or perfect?
What is an enharmonic interval?
What are the unique sounds to each interval?

Music Tech I class will teach the students to distinguish and identify intervals major, minor, augmented, diminished and perfect in nature. There is an equal focus on visual identification as well as aural identification of intervals.

Upon the completion of Music Tech I, the student will be able to:
-Aurally identify intervals, ascending and descending, major, minor, augmented, diminished or perfect in quality
-Visually identify intervals, ascending and descending, major, minor, augmented, diminished or perfect in quality

Students in Music Tech I will :
-Practice aural identification skills for major, minor, augmented, diminished and perfect intervals using the Music Lessons I Computer Program
-Practice visual identification skills for major, minor, augmented, diminished and perfect intervals using the Music Lessons I Computer Program
-Practice aural identification skills for major, minor, augmented, diminished and perfect intervals through classroom discussion and daily drills
Practice visual identification skills for major, minor, augmented, diminished and perfect intervals through classtoom discussion and board work

Student Assessments for this unit will include:
-Students self tests using the Music Lessons I computer program
-Aural quizes with interval identification both ascedning and descending
-Written quizes and tests
