Journal #13

This past week in music we discussed the difference between binary (ab) and ternary (abc). The last one that we talked about was rondo form, which is abaca. We had to create our own dance moves with our group. There were two different groups, and we had to create our own dance moves to go with the tempo of the music.

It is important for students to learn the difference between these forms because it will help to illustrate the differences that music has to offer. It can help them find and understand patterns in songs and anticipate what will be coming next.

Not only do these three forms help us to better understand music, but poems, books, movies, and actual life as well.
