Music Research Project

Dear _________________,

I plan to do the following project for my 3rd marking period music research report:

Music Genre Report and CD Collection of Songs

Name of Music Genre or a Musician or a Group/Band that has shown growth or change over a period of time:  ________________________________________________

I understand that I have the following deadlines for my project:

·        Deadline for collecting my sources                     Friday, February 20

·        Deadline for my list of music clips                      Friday, February 27

·        Deadline for my note cards                               Friday, March 5

·        Deadline for presenting my oral report               Friday, March 19

to Friday, April 2

This is how I will be graded:

·        Sources:           I will need at least  _____________ number of sources.

I will need at least _____________ different types of sources.  (Such as a CD or an Internet site)

·        Prewriting:        I will need to write at least ______________ interesting questions that I have about my topic.  I will also complete an outline for my note cards.

·        Writing:  I will need at least _______________ note cards that will be used to help me with my oral presentation

·        CD Collection:  I will need to burn a CD with ____________ number of songs or samples that will be used to support my oral presentation.  I may also wish to design a special cover for my CD.

·        Oral Report:  My oral report will be judged on the following:

1.       Presentation:  My voice should be loud enough and clear so that everyone can hear me.  I should make eye contact with my audience.

2.      Content:  My report should contain the information that I have on my note cards and cover my topic.

3.      Knowledge:  I should be able to answer general questions from other students about my topic.

4.      A bibliography that lists all my sources.

 

I understand the above and that all music samples must be copied legally and be appropriate in a school setting.  I may need to spend time outside of class to burn my CD.
