- To understand the main features of Calypso music
National curriculum
Pupils should be taught to:
- Play and perform in solo and ensemble contexts, using their voices (and playing musical instruments) with increasing accuracy, fluency, control and expression
- Listen with attention to detail and recall sounds with increasing aural memory
- Appreciate and understand a wide range of high-quality live and recorded music drawn from different traditions and from great composers and musicians
- Develop an understanding of the history of music
Differentiaion
Pupils needing extra support: Pair these pupils with a more confident talk partner for the questions. Place them nearer more confident singers for the singing.
Pupils working at greater depth: Can be encouraged to justify their answers with more depth. Could ‘conduct’ the singing, showing everyone else when to start and stop.
