• Relevant Textbooks

Instructional Materials

To deliver this lesson, the teacher will use the following materials:

1. Samples of clay, fabrics, and smooth/rough surfaces.
2. pictures or real examples of local membranophones like drums.
3. Charts showing types of textures.
4. Audio clips of membranophone sounds (if available).

Rationale for the Lesson

Understanding textures and classifying musical instruments helps pupils appreciate art and culture, develop creative skills, and connect with their heritage.

Prerequisite/Previous Knowledge

Pupils already no about sources of colors and can differentiate between theater and drama.

Lesson Content

Types Of Texture In Arts & Classification Of Local Musical Instruments In Membranophone

Texture refers to how surfaces feel or look. It can be smooth, rough, soft, or hard. Artists use texture to make their work more realistic or expressive.

Types of Texture in Art:

Texture in art refers to the tactile quality of a surface, whether it’s real or implied. These include:

1. Smooth (e.g.,polished stone).
2. rough (e.g., tree bark).
3. Soft (e.g., cotton fabric).
4. Hard (e.g., metal surface).
5. Bumpy (e.g., gravel path).
6. Grainy (e.g., sandpaper).
7. Silky (e.g., silk cloth).

Membranophone Instruments:

Membranophones are musical instruments that produce sound through vibrating membranes.Examples of local membranophones include:

1. Talking drum (Gangan).
2. Bata drum.
3. Djembe drum.
4. Tambourine.
5. Sakara drum.
6. kora drum.
7. Bendir drum.

Teaching Methods

Instructional Procedures

To deliver this lesson,the teacher will adopt the following steps:

Step 1: Introduction

Time: 5 mins
Teaching skill: Set Induction
Teacher’s Activity: Introduces the lesson by asking pupils if thay have felt different textures (e.g., soft, rough).
Pupils’ Activity: Share examples of textures they’ve felt (e.g., clothes, tables).

Step 2: Explanation of Texture Types

Time: 10 mins
Teaching Skill: Explanation
Teacher’s Activity: Defines texture and explains types of textures using clay, fabrics, and charts.
Pupils’ Activity: Observe and touch materials as teacher explains.

Step 3: Classification of Instruments

Time: 10 mins
teaching Skill: Classification
Teacher’s Activity: Explains membranophones and shows examples like drums and tambourines.
Pupils’ Activity: Discuss and classify the instruments with guidance.

Step 4: Note-Taking

Time: 5 mins
Teaching Skill: Writing
Teacher’s Activity: Dictates and writes notes for pupils to copy.
Pupils’ Activity: Copy notes carefully into their books.

Step 5: Practical Application

Time: 5 mins
Teaching Skill: Demonstration
Teacher’s Activity: Guides pupils to create textures using clay and group local instruments into membranophones.
Pupils’ Activity: Work in groups to demonstrate textures and classify instruments.

Step 6: Evaluation/Review

Time: 3 mins
Teaching Skill: Questioning
Teacher’s Activity: Asks questions based on the lesson to test comprehension.
Pupils’ Activity: Answer questions and clarify doubts.

Objective-aligned checks:

1. Define texture and identify its types in art.
2. Classify local musical instruments under membranophone.
3. Use materials like clay or fabric to demonstrate different textures.

Step 7: Conclusion

Time: 2 mins
Teaching skill: Recap
Teacher’s activity: Summarizes the lesson and emphasizes key points about textures and membranophones.
Pupils’ activity: Listen attentively and ask final questions.

Lesson Keywords

• Texture – The feel, appearance, or consistency of a surface or substance.
• Membranophone – A musical instrument that produces sound by the vibration of a stretched membrane.
• Classification – The act of organizing things into groups based on shared qualities.
• Smooth – having an even and regular surface; not rough or bumpy.
• Rough – Having an uneven or irregular surface; not smooth.

Lesson Evaluation

To evaluate the learning, the teacher asks pupils to:

1. Define texture and list three types.
2. Mention three examples of membranophone instruments.
3. Describe how texture adds to art.
4. Demonstrate a texture using clay.
5. Explain why classification of instruments is significant.

Assignment/Homework

1. Collect different textured materials (e.g., leaves, fabrics) and describe their textures.
2. List five local musical instruments and classify them (if possible).
3. Draw a picture using different textures to represent different objects.

Differentiation

• For slower learners: Provide pre-made texture samples and simplified instrument classifications.
• For advanced learners: Research and present on different types of membranophones from around the world.
• For visual/auditory/kinesthetic learners: Use visual aids, audio clips, and hands-on activities to cater to different learning styles.

Note for teachers

Use relatable examples to make the lesson engaging. Encourage pupils to touch materials to feel textures. Highlight cultural relevance while discussing membranophones. happy teaching!
