Test tasks for diagnosing children's musical abilities

Preparation of test tasks for diagnosing children's musical abilities.

1) Sample tasks for determining modal sense, musical and auditory perceptions, sense of rhythm:

- to establish the level of development of the modal sense:

Exercise 1.

Observing the emotional perception of music. Talk about the content of the music. A conversation about the expressive meaning of dynamics. The nature of melodic intonations, expressive timbres of instruments, conveying the character of the music. You can ask children to depict the character of music in motion.

Task 2.

Composing a melody to a given text. Finish the melody on the tonic. You can use a question and answer form.

Task 3.

Exercises for distinguishing modes.

- to establish the level of development of musical and auditory perceptions

Exercise 1.

Find out the direction of movement of the melody up, down, in place (above or below) Answer on which word the melody changed. (For example, in the songs “Cornflower” or “Cockerel” r. n. melody).

Task 2.

Sing your favorite song, first with accompaniment, then without musical accompaniment. Purely intoning the melody.

Task 3.

Repeat a specially played unfamiliar melody.

- to establish the level of development of the sense of rhythm

Exercise 1.

After listening to a simple melody (8 bars), invite the children to tap its rhythm, and when performing it again, independently reproduce it by clapping or on children’s musical instruments.

Task 2.

After listening to the plays: “Moth”, “Polka”, “March”, S. Maikapara, children must portray a Moth (light, graceful and gentle); cheerful dance; decisive, important confident march.

Emotionally, rhythmically depict musical strokes - legato, staccato, non legato, feel accents, highlight phrases in movements. Give genre characteristics of musical works.

Task 3.

The teacher improvises on the piano. Feel changes in the character and tempo of the music, convey these changes in movements.

2) Test game “Timbre hide and seek”

Target:

identifying the level of timbre hearing by identifying the instrumental or vocal sound of the same melody

- Let's play musical hide and seek with you. Now the same melody will be performed by different voices. Listen and guess whose voice performed it the first, second, third time, etc.

An audio recording of the same melody sounds (for example, V. Vitlin “Little Gray Cat”), performed by the indicated instruments in the sequence: 1) piano, 2) guitar, 3) flute, 4) button accordion, 5) metallophone, 6) duets: guitar + triangle, 7) button accordion + tambourine, 8) xylophone, 9) trio: balalaika + button accordion + drum, 10) piano + button accordion + maracas.

Criteria for evaluation:

• weak level – adequate definition of the timbres of the first three fragments: total = 1 – 3 points;
• average level – adequate definition of the timbre of the first seven fragments performed: total = 4 – 7 points;
• high level – adequate determination of the timbre of a performed musical phrase within 8 – 10 presented fragments: total = 8 – 10 points.

3) Test game “We will go to “Loud and Quiet””

Target:

determination of the ability of an adequate auditory-motor reaction to dynamic changes (strength of expression) of instrumental and vocal-instrumental stimuli.

- Let's play loud and quiet with you. I play the piano and you play the drum. Play like me: I am loud and you are loud, I am quiet and you are quiet (A. Aleksandrov’s piece “Drum” is performed, adequate performance of the contrasting dynamics of which “forte - piano” is assessed at 1 point).

- And now the music will gradually increase or decrease. You will also need to perform it on the drum (E. Parlov’s play “March” is being performed, adequate dynamic performance of the 1st phrase in the dynamics of “crescendo” is estimated at 2 points and the 2nd phrase – “diminuendo” is estimated at 2 points. Total 4 points).

Stimulating material:

drum (or tambourine) and fragments of musical plays - A. Alexandrov “Drum”; E. Parlov “March”.

Criteria for evaluation:

• weak level of dynamic feeling = 1 point;
• average level = 2 – 3 points;
• high level = 4 – 5 points.

4)Test game “Unfinished Melody”

Target:

identify the level of development of the sense of completeness (integrity) of musical thought.

— Now the melodies will be “hidden”: some of them will sound in full, while others will not. Listen and try to determine which melody sounds until the end, and which one is “hidden” ahead of time?

After setting the key, any melody known to the child is performed, for example, “A Christmas tree was born in the forest,” in which the last sound is not played, interrupted by the words “green would...”.

Stimulating material

The diagnostic method can be selected independently by the diagnostician.

The method of using stimulating material is constructed in the following order:

1st melody – the last bar is not played;

2nd melody – played to the end;

3rd – the last phrase of the melody is not played;

4th – interrupted in the middle of the second phrase (out of four);

5th – played to the end.

Criteria for evaluation:

• weak level – 1 – 2 points are correctly identified;
• average level – 3 – 4 points are correctly identified;
• high level – all 5 points are correctly identified.

5)Cat and kitten

Target:

identify the level of formation of the sense of pitch - an adequate sense of the relationships between the pitches of sounds.

— The cat and the kitten were lost in the dark forest. Listen: this is how a cat meows (for example, the sound is played

1), and so – a kitten (a higher sound is performed, for example,
salt
1). Help them find each other. Tell me, when does a cat meow, and when does a kitten meow?

Test presentation algorithm:

First the task is given 1.3.

Next, if the answer is correct –
task 2.3.
, then –
task 3.3.
If the child’s answer turns out to be incorrect, the task is simplified -
1.2.
(where 2 points are awarded for the correct answer), if this task is also performed incorrectly,
task 1.1 is given.
(1 point). And so on for each block.

Criteria for evaluation:

• high level = 7 – 9 points (3+3+3; or 3+3+2; or 3+2+2);
• average level = 4 – 6 points (3+2+1; or 3+1+1; or 2+1+1);
• low level = 1 – 3 points (2+1+0; or 1+1+1; or1+1+0; or 1+0+0).

Diagnostics of musical development of children

MAP OF MUSICAL DEVELOPMENT OF A PRESCHOOL CHILDREN

Explanatory note

The implementation of the basic educational program of preschool education involves assessing the individual development of the child. This assessment is carried out by teachers as part of pedagogical diagnostics (assessment of the individual development of preschool children, associated with assessing the effectiveness of pedagogical actions and underlying their further planning).

Diagnostics of the musical development of preschool children is carried out in 2 – 6 groups (children’s age from 2 to 7 years) 2 times a year using certain indicators. Indicators and tasks that allow us to judge the dynamics of the development of musical abilities are determined for each age group.

Purpose of diagnosis:

determination of the level of three basic musical abilities in preschoolers: modal sense, musical-auditory concepts, sense of rhythm in order to assess the effectiveness of pedagogical actions and organize correctional work in accordance with the individual characteristics of the child.

The results of pedagogical diagnostics can be used exclusively to solve the following educational problems:

1) individualization of education (including support for the child, building his educational trajectory or professional correction of his developmental characteristics);

2) optimization of work with a group of children.

Diagnostics are carried out over several sessions. Children complete some tasks in small groups, and some individually. Diagnostics are carried out using software material.

The results of the observation are entered into the columns of the map of the preschooler’s musical development.

The observation results are presented in the form of a three-level scale: optimal level, sufficient level, low level:

optimal level

: the child independently copes with the proposed task or with a little help from an adult:

enough level

: the child partially copes with the task with the help of an adult;

low level

: the child cannot cope with tasks, even with the help of an adult.

Method of pedagogical diagnostics

: observation of each child in music classes while performing specially selected tasks.
