End
This class ability varies greatly,
however for this lesson the
students will all be able to connect
and engage with the content.
Many of the students come from
various multicultural backgrounds,
some with English as a second
language. Content will need to be
differentiated in order for students
to engage and understand the
lessons and content fully.
Two of the students come from
Aboriginal backgrounds and
various classes are changed to
cater for different needs. This
student misses lessons occasionally
as they are enrolled in a different
program every fortnight.
The students skill in music is very
varied so in order for students to
get the most out of practical
elements the bands have been split
into two groups with an advanced
and application group.

Assessment of students Methods to be used:

through homework time and as class work.
Evaluation of your This lesson ran very well and the students were engaged throughout. The
planning practical segments were very fluid and much was achieved through the
lesson. Many of the keyboard sections are being learnt and so the band
pieces are coming along well. An improvement could be to allow for the
other band to sit in at the end of a lesson to listen to the group play, this
would make the students more used to playing in front of crowds.
