Study Unit 2 - Blog #2

As a foundation phase teacher I would choose to use contemporary  commercial music (including popular music and film music) in my class as I feel that this choice of music will be more relatable with the learners as they would be exposed to this type of music in the daily lives from music they hear at home with their parents as well as music from television shows and films that they watch. 

I do think the examples and content discussed in SU 2 are inclusive because they are designed or addressed for all learners, irrespective of diverse needs (should there be in the classroom). They type of activities will reach all students and will be able to provide them with a sensory experience whilst learning music. 

I would not change any of the content in this study unit, I really enjoyed this study unit as well as the extra videos that were made available to us. This helps a lot to understand the content better and to give us a better idea of how practically this would work with our learners. I would however like to suggest that perhaps more examples are given for other grades as well as I feel like the content or examples were only focused on Grade 1 or Grade 2 and not so much for Grade 3.
