Struggles?

with the timer. They will get out the rubric in their folder.Each

and how to fix them.

E. Accommodations (Differentiated Instruction)-
1. If a students is struggling with notes and rhythm I will ask
them to focus on that. If a student is achieving notes and rhythms
then I will ask them to focus on tonguing and dynamics.
2. If students seem to be mastering all of this I will ask them to
work on more parts of the song. If they are struggling I will ask
them to focus on just the 2 measures that contain new material. |

doing well? What are they struggling with? Is it as good as it could
be? Could you add more to your song to make it even better? |
