Springboard Plan: Choir
General Guidelines for Instruction
What do we need to do to operate choir classrooms following the State Public &
Safety Guidelines?
• Choir standards consist of more than performance standards- there
are many standards that may still be addressed while staying within
the guidelines in a Face-to-Face model.
• Building foundational music reading skills, including syntax, rhythm, melody and
harmony
• Encouraging musical exploration and creativity through improvisation and composition
• Empowering students to appreciate and understand the historical, cultural and societal
impact of vocal and choral music upon diverse communities of people
• Understanding the relationship of choir within the wider realm of music education,
and as an essential arm of interdisciplinary fine arts
• Incorporating culturally-responsive platforms for teaching and learning”
• Face-to-Face instruction supports the at-home portion
• Online platform specific to music
• At-home learning supports the performance standards not able to be
addressed while complying with guidance (wearing of masks, singing,
etc.)CHOIR Based on the springboard plan shared: • I like … • I am concerned about …
