They are required to utilise different sounds and lights to enhance the performance. Students are to investigate the sounds made by different instruments and select the appropriate sounds to match the selected text.

Question and Predict + Evaluate

Focus Lesson Two- ‘Hist Hark’- CJ Dennis- Poem Read text to students Light, Sounds and Vibrations (One group to read- One group to produce sound) or (Pairs work on one verse)- Evaluate sounds Think Pair Share

Perform order of verses.

Lesson Five- Canberra Questacon (http://canberra.questacon.edu.au/sciencetime#toggler_music)

Rice on top of bowl (on top of glad-wrap)- beat a drum and watch the rice bounce- What instrument can you use to make the rice move? Or voice? LIGHT

Question and predict + Generate and Develop + Produce

Lesson six-

Find references to light in the poem ‘Hist Hark’.

In pairs/groups match images to poem- Attach to Powerpoint and create background to use for when reciting/performing poem.

Produce + Evaluate

Lesson seven-

Produce a performance for an audience using a variety of sounds and lights to enhance performance

Record performance using Ipads.

Evaluate strengths and limitations- Plus Delta (What worked well? What would you change and why?)
