Teacher Tools for the Design Principles: From Vision to Action
Using the Design Principles to explore History and culture
These questions can be useful as a way to use the design
principles as a lens to examine history and culture.
Books and poems that illustrate the design principles
Books and poems can be a useful way to explore the design principles. If you
would like to write a brief (2-3 sentences) book review of any of these
books, we will include it on the website. Please be specific about the
age range you used the book for.
Resources on the Design Principles
Teacher Tools for Design Principles in Concert
Concert Rubric
This can be used during practice by the
performers and teacher, and by the audience during the performance to
critique the studentsâ performance.
Songs that Illustrate the Design Principles
At a session during the 2000
National Expeditionary Learning Conference in Memphis where Deb Fordice
shared the idea for a design principle concert, the teachers n the
workshop sang songs from the concert and then brainstormed an expanded
list of songs for each design principle.
Shared text format for song lyrics
This instructional practice is useful
as a way to both learn the melody and rhythm for a song and to come to
understand what the lyrics mean.
