Learning Sequence Activities Edwin E. Gordon
Learning Sequence Activities should be the core of every curriculum
that teaches music fundamentals—instrumental or choral, elementary
school or college.
Simply put, these activities are a research-based, carefully-sequenced
way to teach the basics, and to teach toward the individual differences
of your students. They take up no more than five or ten minutes at the
beginning of a class period.
Designed by Edwin E. Gordon, the activities broaden the tonal and
rhythm vocabularies of students. More importantly, by working with
tonal and rhythm patterns—the building blocks of all music—students
learn to audiate or to give meaning to music. Is a song in triple meter or duple? Is it in
major or minor? How does the chord structure progress? Improvise a harmony....
The ability to audiate is fundamental to all other music achievement. You will quickly find
that these activities enhance everything musical you do in the classroom.
