2nd Grade Lesson plan •  Target: I can

identify the Wolf’s theme as the brass family.

I will need… •  Brass family instrument

clip. •  Mozart recording •  Listening Log (continued

from last week) •  Matching cards •  Melodic and rhythmic Yum

Yum’s games. •  Chromelab

The Wolf •  The Wolf’s theme is played

by the French Horn. •  The French Horn is a part

of the brass family, that means it is made out of metal, and uses air to be played.

•  Watch the clip about brass family instruments to see the other instruments of the brass family.

Lets Listen… •  Now that we learned about the brass

family, let’s listen to the Mozart Concerto while completing the Wolf pages of our listening log.

Lets Play a Game… •  Using the matching cards, flip the

cards upside down for a matching game. Flip two cards over at a time. If they don’t match flip them back over. There is two ways to get a match, either the same card, or by matching the character to their instrument family!

Lets Practice Our Rhythmic and Melodic Patterns…

•  Use both of the Yum Yums links to practice our rhythmic and melodic patterns.

•  If you have extra time, you can explore some music experiments on Chromelab.

Lets Reflect… Target: I can identify the Wolf’s theme as the brass family. I demonstrated the Wolf’s theme as brass family instruments by… •  Watching a clip about brass family instruments. •  Reading about the French Horn. •  Completing the Wolf pages of my listening log

while listening to a French Horn Concerto.
