  • Card Games for Individuals
    Card Games for individuals Patience The game is played using a tableau of seven columns. Running from left to right, the first column contains one card, the second contains two, the third three, etc. In each column, the top card should be face up and the rest face down. Deal by placing one card, face up, on the table in front of you then, to this card’s right, six more face down. Repeat this row by row, dealing one less card each time. As well as the face-up cards in the tableau, you’ll work with every third card in the remaining pack, one at a time. Move through the pack by taking three cards from the top and turning them over, creating a new face-up pile. When you’ve passed through the deck, turn it over and start again. In the tableau, a card from the pack may be placed on another card that is one rank higher and of an alternate colour. An eight of hearts, for example, may be placed on either a nine of spades or a nine of clubs - both black suits. Sequences of grouped cards can be moved around according to the same rules as individual cards. Whenever you free up a face-down card on a tableau column, turn it over. If a column is emptied, you can shift any card or sequence into it. If an ace comes into play, position it face up above the tableau, thus beginning a foundation. Foundations are suited and built from ace to king.

  • Schottische Musik
    Masterprüfung Musik SCHOTTISCHE MUSIK Gestern und heute Reichmuth Fabienne Stoll Pierina SR 12 H16 Sach- und Begründungsanalyse Schottische Musik gestern und heute Abstract Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit schottischer Musik von früher und der Gegenwart als auch deren schulprak- tische Umsetzung auf der Sekundarstufe 1. In der Sach- und Begründungsanalyse werden Hintergrundinformatio- nen über typische schottische Instrumente und die Geschichte des Dudelsacks und der Scottish Folk Musik ge- sammelt. Es werden auch Merkmale der Scottish Folk Musik aufgeführt und thematisiert, inwiefern man diese musikalischen Merkmale in der heutigen schottischen Musik noch finden kann. Zudem wird der Cèilidh, eine typisch schottische Tanzveranstaltung, und die dazugehörige Tanzmusik kurz erläutert. Danach folgt die Begründungs- analyse, in welcher beschrieben wird, inwiefern die Thematik für die Lernenden von Bedeutung ist und welche Punkte des Lehrplans durch die Auseinandersetzung mit dem Thema Schottische Musik früher und heute abge- deckt werden können. Es folgen allgemeine Hinweise zur Umsetzung des Themas im Unterricht. Im Ideenpool werden weitere mögliche Anknüpfungspunkte zu den fünf Bereichen des Lehrplans 21 gesammelt. Im Hinblick auf die schulpraktische Umsetzung wurden exemplarische drei schottische Songs – The Ballad of John MacLean, This is the Life, und I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles) – gewählt. Zu den ersten beiden Songs wurde ein Lead- sheet, für den letzten ein Arrangement inklusive Spielhilfen für die Umsetzung im Klassenzimmer erstellt. Des Weiteren beinhaltet diese Arbeit eine Bewegungsanleitung für einen traditionellen Cèilidh zum Stück Virginia Reel. Zudem haben wir vier Arbeitsmaterialien zu den Themen Dudelsack, Edinburgh Military Tattoo, Cèilidhs und Schot- tische Instrumente erstellt. Zwei dieser Materialien und die Bewegungsanleitung lassen sich für den fächerüber- greifenden Unterricht in Kombination mit Englisch verwenden, was sich angesichts der Thematik offensichtlich anbietet.
