ABSTRACT

Singing different kinds of minor scales can be difficult for a new aural skills student. And, it can also be tortuously easy for others. This activity provides an effective twist that will engage a wide range of skill levels as well as develop a tool that is easily transferred to other aural skills assignments. The lesson plan spans portions of two classes, suggests a handout format for the first class, proposes possible homework in between the classes, details preparation for the instructor to complete for the second class, and forwards ideas for scaling the lesson plan to other topics.
