Choose a piece of music and consider how you could use this in a HWB lesson about mental health.
Evidence: Write up a lesson outline plan (with learning intentions, success criteria, assessment and activities), include the music used. (1 hour)
Personal Thoughts:
This task was quite challenging to try and think of a piece of music which which could be developed into a lesson however after going along to a workshop about Happiness & Wellbeing we thought that looking at calmness would be appropriate. Thinking about some of the behaviour management strategies being implemented in schools this lesson we believe could also work as a strategy.
From personal experience, putting a piece of calm, soothing music on after break/lunch or at times where the children are unsettled or a bit too excited/worked up was successful. The music helped bring them back to a state of mind where learning was able to take place. It was also good for me as a teacher to ensure lessons were able to be delivered.
The task can be viewed as a word document –
Piece of Music – only play for length of time required
