This resource is a summative assessment that can be used after a recorder unit where students learn basic note/rest values in 4/4 time, such as whole, half, and quarter notes and rests. Students are asked to review the basics of 4/4 time, such as how many beats may fit into a measure and how many beats notes/rests may receive. Students are asked to review all of the pitches that they've learned on the recorder so far and then fill out a chart stating how many whole, half, or quarter notes/rests may fit into a measure of 4/4 time. Next, students will create an 8 measure recorder composition using all of the pitches they've learned on the recorder so far and whole, half, and quarter notes and rests. Students will walk away from this assignment with a better understanding of how many whole, half, and quarter notes/rests fit into one measure of 4/4 time, using the pitches they've learned on the recorder, therefore reinforcing those concepts as well.

This is a worksheet that can be used in a lesson that is meant to connect students between major and realitive (in the same key) minor scales. This lesson would be appropriate for students in a middle school instrumental setting. Students in this lesson will first be asked to associate feelings (happy) with a major scale and then spell the major scale on their instrument of choice. Next, students will learn about the different forms of the relative minor scale (natural, harmonic, melodic), and how it relates to the major scale. Students will then associate feelings to the different forms of minor scale (sadness, mysteriousness). By the end of the lesson, students should know that any natural scale can be made by lowering the 3rd, 6th, and 7th degree of a scale, a harmonic scale can be made by lowering the 3rd and 6th step of a scale, and a melodic minor scale can be made by lowering the 7th step of a scale on the way up, and the 3rd, 6th, and 7th step of the scale on the way down.
