Five Domains For Learning
1.Communication
2.Cognition
3.Physical
4.Behavioral/Emotional
5.Sensory
Music Aptitude
Music aptitude is one’s potential to achieve in
music.
Music aptitude is innate, but not inherent.
Music Aptitude
Music aptitude is developmental until age 9,
and can fluctuate until about age nine
according to the richness and diversity of
musical experiences the child undergoes.
Music aptitude stabilizes after age 9.
One cannot expect to achieve in music
beyond the limit of one’s stabilized music aptitude.
Music Aptitude
Administer a valid and reliable test
such as the Primary Measures of
Music Audiation (PMMA) or the
Intermediate Measures of Music
Audiation (IMMA) to measure
each student’s music aptitude.
Music Aptitude
It is NOT the purpose of aptitude testing to
identify students for inclusion or exclusion
in music activities.
Music Aptitude
Because many students with high music aptitude
have not had the opportunity to achieve in music,
a music aptitude test can reveal musical potential
that might otherwise remain unknown to those
students and their teachers.
Music Aptitude
Use the scores to differentiate each student’s
instruction. Scores will be normally distributed
in a population; they will fall in a “bell curve.”
Music Aptitude
Students with low music aptitude will need many
more opportunities to listen, echo patterns,
decode, and read than those with average or high
music aptitude. Students with high music
aptitude will learn faster and need more challenges
than those with average or low aptitude.
Music Aptitude
A student’s scores in tonal aptitude and rhythm
aptitude will likely differ: a student with high
tonal aptitude could have a below average
rhythm aptitude. Therefore, the teacher is
challenged to teach to each student’s individual
differences.

Q&A
General Ideas
Use a predictable/standard lesson plan
Many tasks in a single music class =
Opportunity to give positive feedback
Regarding each student’s strength
Sequence! Break down each task and
sequence
General Ideas
Identify carefully what you want to assess
Offer multiple opportunities to learn and
Reinforce skills/concepts so kids have
Opportunities to learn what you want to assess
Seek incremental improvement for each student

Its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole
