Create your own Developmental Sequence of music responses.

[Anonymous]

Using the Developmental Sequence Worksheet as a guide, create your own developmental sequence of music responses for each of the four music experiences: Sing Play Move Listen.

Hi Everyone,

A few things:

*Please be mindful to only answer the questions in the topics created by Brandit and avoid creating a new topic of your own to answer the questions for each week. I will be deleting any new topics created as new topics not created by our team create a lot of confusion.

*Please be mindful to come back and read other’s responses and to respond to at least one participant. This will give you more of the depth of the training.

*If you have not already sent us a signed SMT Agreement and Ground Rules document, please do that as soon as possible and send to Michelle Dumas at info@raisingharmony.com.

*This question can be confusing for some participants. Elizabeth and Meredith gave a PDF (located on the landing page) to help with completing this question. If you still need any help, I can share a sample response to this question to assist you.

If you need any assistance, do not hesitate to contact me.

Thank you,

Erika

Singing

Awareness: vocalizing nonspecific pitches
Trust: sing descending intervals
Independence: imitate animals sounds and pitches
Control: imitates words in songs
Responsibility: sings with pulse and meter

Listening

Awareness: children can tell the difference between pitches
Trust: turn towards instruments played at a distance
Independence: respond to changes in tempo, timbre, and dynamics by changing facial affect
Control: make choices for instruments from a field of three
Responsibility: can labels music by emotional quality, e.g. happy or scary

Movement

Awareness: movements are repetitive, involve the entire body
Trust: movements are more rhythmic
Independence: isolates body parts, e.g. clapping hands
Control: combine movements in a repeating pattern
Responsibility: use movements to reflect the timbre, dynamics, and lyrics

Instrument

Awareness: reach arms towards played instruments
Trust: play with a rhythmic beat
Independence: transfer instrument from hand to hand
Control: play with different dynamics
Responsibility: repeats rhythmic patterns

Great sequences, thank you 🙂

Singing
Awareness – repetition of vocalization
Trust – matches pitch half the time
Independence – sings descending intervals
Control – matches selected pitches
Responsibility – increases ability to match pitch center

Playing Instruments
Awareness – rhythmic movements are instinctual
Trust – briefly uses pulse and meter
Independence – uses hands to strike drumhead or tambourine
Control – likes to pound and bang
Responsibility – maintains steady beat

Moving
Awareness – moves are in simple rhythms
Trust – displays movement that is rhythmic but not synchronized to the music
Independence – uses whole body rhythmically and can isolate body parts rhythmically
Control – imitates learned movements to music
Responsibility – uses musical movements in sequence

Listening
Awareness – recognizes changes in vocal timbre
Trust – recognizes familiar melodies
Independence – enjoys musical surprises like fermata, glissando, silence, etc
Control – follows melodic contour of familiar songs
Responsibility – recognizes and can produce “loud” and “soft”

Singing Awareness: uses pitch in vocalization ; Trust: matches selected pitch about half the time ; Independence: babbles with melodic inflection ; Control: follows melodic contour of familiar song ; Responsibility: uses pulse and meter within melodic contour

Playing Awareness: responds differently to sedative versus play-song music ; Trust: briefly uses pulse and meter ; Independence: explores a variety of instruments purposefully ; Control: starts and stops instruments purposefully ; Responsibility: maintains a steady beat

Moving Awareness: rhythmic movements are instinctual ; Trust: responds to music with repetitive movements ; Independence: isolates body parts to move rhythmically ; Control: imitates learned musical movements ; Responsibility: uses musical movements in sequence

Listening: recognizes changes in vocal timbre ; Trust: recognizes familiar melodies ; Independence: beginning to match intensity of movements to intensity of music ; Control: stops to listen to music ; Responsibility: Listens to the music of others

[Diandra Doble]

Singing Awareness: uses pitch in vocalizations Trust: matches selected pitches about half the time Independence: babbles with melodic inflection Control: follows melodic contour of familiar song Responsibility: uses pulse and meter within melodic contour

Playing Awareness: different responses to sedative and play-song music Trust: briefly uses pulse and meter and this will increase with time Independence: explores instruments intentionally Control: starts and stops instrument play with the music Responsibility: maintains a steady beat

Moving Awareness: natural rhythmic movements Trust: responds to music with repetitive movements Independence: isolates body parts to move rhythmically Control: imitates learned musical movements Responsibility: uses musical movements in sequences

Listening Awareness: recognizes changes in vocal timbre Trust: recognizes familiar melodies Independence: begins to match intensity of movements of intensity of music Control: Stops actions to listen to music Responsibility: listens to other’s music
