After watching Chris
demonstrate what the poem, “Let the Piper Call the Tune” is supposed to sound
like and I realize that the beat when I did the poem seemed to be correct but I
did not do so well on the ‘Ti and Ta.” When there is one sound and one beat you
use a “ta” and when you have two sounds on one beat you use “ti-ti.” Four beats per line.
For example:
Let the piper call the tune
Ti-Ti Ti-Ti Ti-Ti Ta
Call the Tune
Call the tune
Ti-Ti Ti-Ti
Ta Ti-Ti Ti- Ti
Ta
The nervous laughter
was a problem and not being sure that I was doing this correctly was another
problem.
I understand this
lesson not only just for the instructor to find out if his method of teaching
is working but as a student and a soon to be educator I need to be reflecting
on my own work, not to find the error so much, as to learn from the error. The benefits of learning from my error will
out way the error itself and I am fully capable of learning and so are the
students that I will be teaching one day.

Blog Assignment:
What is Rhythm?
Miss
Taylor did a wonderful job of presenting her information in a multisensory
learning approach; her topic was “What is Rhythm?” She used a combination of
teacher-centered and also student-centered learning to convey and teach her
class about rhythm. Having instruction
is important and so is the reinforcement of those materials. Miss Taylor also guided and involved the
students to join in as well, when teaching about rhythm. Miss Taylor allowed her students to too
participate with her and the other students to get a better understanding of
the information and to make learning fun and enjoyable. I appreciated the way she went over the
material more than once, and also she had written and simplified the
information she wanted the students to really grasp. Miss Taylor asked the students if they were
getting the material (using active learning and cognitive learning), she did
this in different steps of her teaching, and thus making sure everyone was
getting the information. Miss Taylor
spoke in a bright and cheerful way and that helps set the stage for a better
response from her students. I believe that Miss Taylor has presented the
material in a way that her students can learn by using the boards and repeating
her instruction, making sure everyone was on the same level and also getting
the students involved was a great way to present this lesson.
