What will students be learning in Music this year?

十年级-学生将分析评核单元所需八套作品中的五套.  In addition, students will study other pieces of music related to these set works, 这将作为本课程要求的分析不熟悉音乐的准备. 学生将考虑关于这项工作的简短问题,以及如何写扩展的答案比较文章. Alongside this, students will have music theory and composition lessons, 这将为学生提供工具,以回应给定的简报,并有效地沟通音乐是如何运作的. 学生将了解表演部分的评估标准,并有一系列独立完成录音的截止日期.

十一年级-学生将分析评核单元所需八套作品中的其余三套.  In addition, students will study other pieces of music related to these set works, 这将作为本课程要求的分析不熟悉音乐的准备. 他们将继续练习在不同音乐之间写比较文章的技巧. 学生们将学习如何将他们在10年级学到的作文技巧应用到考试委员会制定的11年级作文摘要中. Students will continue to make recordings for the performing component, responding to the feedback that they have been given, and select the recordings they will submit as part of their coursework portfolio.

Expectations of students in Music

Students will have two periods of Music per week. 学生将在这些课程中学习独立聆听和评估音乐的技能. 另一方面,学生将学习作曲技巧,使用西贝柳斯符号软件. 学生将被要求在规定的最后期限内提交他们的表演工作提案,学生将在他们的乐器老师的指导下独立完成这部分的大部分工作. 学生应提供文件夹和分隔器,以保持他们的工作有条理. They will receive regular homework which they will be expected to complete on time. Any feedback given to students should be acted upon.  学生们应该在自己的时间里尽可能多地听不熟悉的音乐(每周至少一首),并练习用课堂上学到的方法完成每一首音乐的听觉分析. Furthermore, 学生应每周参加一次课外音乐活动,以培养自己的音乐才能.

What are the major assessments this year?

At the end of each unit, 学生们将通过一个简短的听力测试来评估他们的理解能力,该测试基于固定的作品和一段不熟悉的相关音乐. 一旦完成了每套作业的分析,学生也将被设置一个论述问题. Students will complete solo and ensemble performances throughout the year, which are recorded and kept in the department.  在十年级结束前,学生们还需要在两篇对比鲜明的作文上取得相当大的进步.  学生全年都会收到关于他们工作的口头和书面反馈.

During the Summer term of Year 10 and Autumn term of Year 11, 学生将参加模仿英国普通中等教育证书评估考试的音乐模拟考试.

What will the current performance grade be based on?

Until their end of year examination, the current performance grade will be based on a combination of appraising, performing and composing work completed up until that point.

What should my daughter do if she feels she is struggling in the subject?

如果你的女儿觉得自己在挣扎,她应该尽快和她的音乐老师谈谈. 老师和学生之间的讨论将决定系里支持她在这门学科上工作的最佳方式. 可以为她提供辅助活动和额外的阅读来帮助她理解一个主题, or small group support during a lunch time. 她还可以与六年级学生的学科负责人配对,他们将能够在更长期的基础上支持她,因为她已经参加了GCSE考试.  音乐部门也在音乐SharePoint页面上放置了大量的资源, 所以她也应该去那里看看是否有什么资源可以帮助她. 记住,有时经历困难是学习过程中正常的一部分. Above all, don't give up!

How can I support my daughter?

对她正在做的事情感兴趣,并表示你重视她正在学习的东西,这会产生巨大的不同.

鼓励她每天练习她的乐器,并确保她与她的乐器老师就她将为GCSE录音演奏的音乐进行持续的对话. 在10年级开始的时候,学生们就得到了一些信息,这些信息是为了让他们的乐器老师了解考试委员会的要求而设计的. 这些信息应该有助于引导关于适当的曲目选择的对话, especially regarding the difficulty and lengths of pieces.

学生应该确保他们经常听他们在课堂上学习的所有固定作品的录音,以增加他们对特定片段的熟悉程度. Students should be encouraged to listen to unfamiliar music, 无论是老师给他们的建议,还是自己寻找和听其他与学习领域相关的作品. Putting Radio 3 on in the car is an excellent place to start!

To help develop composing skills, 应该鼓励学生们用他们的乐器独立完成简短的作曲任务——作曲是学生们需要练习的技能,就像表演一样. 应该鼓励学生在家里一个安静的地方完成作业,没有兄弟姐妹的干扰, television or mobile phones/tablets.  It is vital that all homework is handed in on time and presented to a high level.
