Through the repertoire chosen by the class, what differences or connections can be made between the historical
periods represented?
How does music of each time period reflect culture, and what role did music play in this culture?
What can skills, knowledges, and understanding can we gain from learning with individuals from different
generations?
Stage 2 - Evidence
Evidence is greatly achieved through the socialization of the two groups. This is why I will be starting with
creating a positive atmosphere so that relationships can be formed. Specifically relating to the goals and music
making, students and residents members should work together in order to create a piece that represents ideas
from their different perspectives on life. These mashups will be created by using pieces from the different
generations in the class. Through this process of creating mashups, students will understand how the different
forms of the songs are similar through the different generations. These mashups will be shared with the class.
