Description
Welcome!
My goal is to provide educators with thoughtful materials that they can either integrate into their current curricula or adopt entirely. The Ultimate Music History Bundle contains six different units: Early Music (Medieval and Renaissance Eras), Baroque Era, Classical Era, Romantic Era, Impressionism Era, and Jazz Eras. With more than 500 pages worth of content, these units comprise over two year's worth of study for General Music classes. All files, with the exception of the PowerPoints, are in PDF format. Below are the items that you will find within each unit of this bundle. Note that certain units contain additional items not mentioned below - please see the individual unit pages at Mr. E's Music Room for more information.
Unit Map
Each unit contains a unit map which presents a content overview (overarching goals, essential questions, knowledge and skills, repertoire/key musicians, and terms) in addition to individual lesson plans. Each lesson plan has been aligned to the National Core Arts Standards and contains detailed step-by-step teacher instructions. Space has also been provided for educators to enter their respective state standards.
Each unit contains a set number of lessons designed to be 50 minutes each. Please note that teaching schedules vary. These units have been designed based on a 6-day rotating schedule.
