Looking for a way to have some fun while learning music? Look no further. This Graphic Scores Unit will have your students exploring how to represent sound using graphics and composing in no time! There are 3 main lessons included in this unit, however, the last lesson will likely take 6-8 lessons to put together and perform. This unit is one I have used with my own students so I know how much fun they have with it! The great thing with graphic scores is you don't really need any instruments to compose which makes this unit even better if you're teaching music on a cart or have limited resources available.

Overview:

This graphic score short unit exposes students to what a graphic score is. They get to represent sound using graphics and compose their own graphic score using found sounds. Students will learn how sound and music can be represented using graphics. They will practice representing a short piece of music through graphics. After, they will represent common soundscapes using their own graphics and will then create their own graphic score to perform. I created this in Google Docs/Slides so that you can customize this unit to your own unique needs.

Learning Goals:

• We are learning how to represent sounds and music using non-traditional notation.
• We are learning to compose a piece of music using found sounds and represent our sound using graphics.

Success Criteria:

• I can represent sound using graphics.
• I can compose a piece of music with a group and perform it using my score.

What’s Included:

• Lesson Plans and Ideas
• Google Slides Lesson on Graphic Scores (including original composition to practice creating graphic scores)
• Graphic organizer for students with fill in the blanks about graphic scores
• Graphic organizer for students to represent original composition as a graphic score
• Graphic organizer for students to represent soundscapes using graphics
• Graphic score for students to create their own graphic scores
• Rubrics to mark graphic score assignments
• 3 Stars and a Wish for peer feedback

This bundle contains four teaching resources about the Victory Gardens in World War II. Each of these complement one another but can also be used independently.

PowerPoint Mini-Lesson - This mini-lesson contains eleven slides that provide a deeper look at the Victory Gardens planted during World War II in the United States. Use it to teach F2F or provide as an independent supplemental learning resource. The slides contain fascinating and engaging visuals including posters as well as instructions and text from actual pamphlets produced by the U.S. Department of Agriculture during the war. Victory Gardens provided essential fruits and vegetables to American citizens. It was a wholly volunteer effort and involved youth through adults and became a very successful endeavor during a time of great need! This includes the PowerPoint version as the well as the PDF. In the free version, only the PDF is available.

Primary Source Analysis and DBQs - This 16 page primary source analysis activity gives students a chance to delve deeper into life on the home front in the United States. They will determine why the Victory Gardens were so important to the war effort. Included is a one-page sheet that explains what primary sources are and how to analyze them using specific questions through a process called HAPPY. Primary sources include pamphlet excerpts, photographs and posters. Each page of primary sources includes questions. Two DBQ prompts are also included. There is also a page at the end for students to apply the HAPPY process to one source. An Answer Key to all the questions and the HAPPY process is available at the end of the packet. This is excellent practice for all high school students, particularly Honors and AP students.

Class Activities - There are two class activities available in this 9 page teaching resource. Your students will become immersed in the home front issues of World War II with these two activities.

Activity 1 - Create a Propaganda Poster related to Victory Gardens

Students will review posters from World War II and then create their own using similar elements to what was used then in terms of design, message and purpose.

Activity 2 - Participate in 5 Minute Simulations

Students will take on various roles in the effort to organize community Victory Gardens. They will have a chance to be a leader, community member, representative of the local Victory Garden Committee or a garden/hardware store owner.

Have students study the primary source documents from pamphlets published by the US Department of Agriculture as well as photographs from World War II to enhance their understanding prior to completing either activity.

Reading Assignment and Worksheet

As an alternative to presenting the Power Point Lesson, students can do close reading about Victory Gardens in World War II and then complete the worksheet. The Reading Assignment is one page and the Worksheet is one page. The Worksheet is available on Easel as a digital option. An Answer Key is included for the worksheet.

Why teach word meaning through nonsense words?

• Students must use critical thinking to solve
• Students must read the whole passage for context clues
• Students must problem solve to find the best word that makes the most sense.
• They can't find the answer except through problem solving.

All of these are things we want every student to do! This is something that is already adapted for high and low learners.

Starting with three nonsense words gets students going so they can work in groups or independently to decode the meaning of 7 REAL words (selected from the SAT vocabulary list).

This is a perfect activity for group problem solving and critical thinking!
