    OVERVIEW

    This general music unit contains music-making activities and responding activities using the folk song Old Joe Clark. Three audio examples of Old Joe Clark will be used as primary resources from the Library of Congress.

    The lessons in this unit can be done in approximately 22.5 hours of total instruction time. The first lesson is a Readiness lesson, where the students will be exposed to music-making opportunities with Old Joe Clark. The intent is to establish familiarity with the folk song. In subsequent lessons, introductory activities will be explored to increase familiarity with Old Joe Clark. Reinforcing and extending the material over several lessons will allow time for student reflection and retention (This will also allow the opportunity for students who were absent in a previous lesson to have the opportunity to be exposed to the folk song). The Readiness activities for Old Joe Clark used in this unit include multiple listening examples that can be teacher-selected from various resources. While this unit focuses on the Responding Artistic Process, it is important to incorporate music-making opportunities that also include areas of Creating, Performing, and Connecting. Additionally, other music-making experiences separate from the Old Joe Clark activities are encouraged for exploration within the lessons. This approach will help keep students engaged in the overall music-making and learning process.

    PREREQUISITE SKILLS FOR THE UNIT

    Students understand how their musical interests and experiences influence knowing about the contexts of music (purposes, culture, historical periods).

    Students can explain why music may interest them.

    Students can understand the purposes for which music was/is created.

    Students can identify selected elements of music, such as articulation/style, dynamics, harmony, tempo, timbre (instrument families), texture, and form in aural or written form (e.g., using a word wall).

    Students know what an arrangement of a piece of music is.

    Students can label elements of music while listening to music.

    Students understand how knowing about music elements aids in a performers interpretation of the musics expressive intent.

    Students understand how lyrics reflect expressive intent.

    Students display knowledge of criteria for judging the quality of musical works and performances.

    Students demonstrate an ability to evaluate musical works and performances using specific criteria based on the elements of music.

    Note: This unit contains old recordings that have been digitized from the Library of Congress collections. It may be necessary to discuss old recording technology with students before beginning the unit so they understand that the crackle and hissing sounds are not part of the music examples.

    3. Teacher leads discussion into the history of Old Joe Clark, which will include:

    It is believed that Old Joe Clark was written in Kentucky and first published in 1842.

    Discussion on What is a folk song? Folk songs are regional and come from a specific country, region, or area. Folk songs follow the oral tradition. They werent written down; they were passed on over time. Since they were passed down over time, folk songs have variations and different versions. It is common that folk songs changed over time as singers snag the story differently and people performed them differently.

    It is believed that Joe Clark was a real man from Kentucky. There are records of a Joe Clark who served in the Seventh Kentucky Infantry during the Civil War and then settled in Sexton Creek, Kentucky. He was allegedly a strange man, and people from the community started making poems and songs about him. These stories grew more strange and silly, but they were possibly based on the life of a real person.
