Music Theory 1 Syllabus Mrs. Lauren Martin, Director of Bands Email: [email protected] Phone: (386)-575-4153 X44073 Listening to music is one of the most popular pastimes, enjoyed by people all over the world. Whether listening to recordings or attending live concerts, music has the ability to inspire almost anyone. For many students and professionals, playing a musical instrument is an even more enjoyable experience. But understanding how music is constructed; how scales and chords are formed; the relationship between major and minor keys; and how music is composed through melody, harmony, and chord progressions can enhance the musical experience even further. There is also current scientific research which proves that studying music improves I.Q. scores-it actually makes students smarter! This course will allow you as the student to have a better understanding of the how and why of music! School Retake Policy Students may only retake ONE Summative per nine weeks. Students must retake that summative BEFORE the next summative is administered. School Homework Policy Homework is given as an essential part of the curriculum to reinforce student skills and assess student learning. Believing homework is important to promote student success; Deltona High School teachers will assign homework as appropriate, assess that homework for accuracy, provide timely feedback, and assign the homework to the Formative category. Extra Credit Policy EXTRA CREDIT may be earned in a variety of ways, including performances in select cocurricular music ensembles(s), attendance at clinic/workshops, and multiple concert reports. Students interested in extra credit projects should discuss their ideas with Mrs. Martin prior to completion of the project.
