When not otherwise specified, a "seventh chord" usually means a dominant seventh chord: a major triad together with a minor seventh cadence a cadence is "a melodic or harmonic configuration that creates a sense of resolution [finality or pause]." A harmonic cadence is a progression of two chords that concludes a phrase, section, or piece of music cadences are divided into four main types, according to their harmonic progression: authentic (typically perfect authentic or imperfect authentic), half, plagal, and deceptive. Authentic Cadence (AC) V-I Many times, a seventh is added to the V chord for an even stronger resolving sound. Authentic cadences are generally classified as perfect or imperfect. In a perfect authentic cadence (PAC), the chords are in root position, meaning the roots of both chords are in the bass. Plagal Cadence (PC) IV-I is a cadence from the subdominant (IV) to the tonic (I). is when a subdominant chord solves directly in the tonic, without passing through the dominant. Perfect Authentic Cadence (PAC) perfect authentic cadence (PAC), the chords are in root position, meaning the roots of both chords are in the bass. In addition, the tonic is will be in the highest voice of the final chord. This is generally considered the strongest type of cadence. Imperfect Authentic Cadence Root Position IAC: Similar to a perfect authentic cadence, but the highest voice is not the tonic. Inverted IAC: Similar to a perfect authentic cadence, but one or both chords are inverted. Leading Tone IAC: The V chord is replaced with the leading tone (viio) chord, but the cadence still ends on the tonic (I). Half Cadence (HC) half cadence is any cadence ending on the dominant (V), regardless of which chord precedes it. Because it sounds incomplete or suspended, the half cadence is considered a weak cadence that calls for a continuation. Rarely do half cadences end a piece, but they are found many times in the first half of a chorus or verse. Deceptive Cadence (DC) A deceptive cadence is a progression in which the dominant chord (V) resolves to a chord other than the tonic (I). Ionian C-C same as major scale the mode represented by the natural diatonic scale C-C (the major scale). is a musical mode or, in modern usage, a diatonic scale also called the major scale.

Mixolydian G- same as major scale with lowered 7th scale degree. The Mixolydian Mode is type of major scale (it has a natural 3rd) and is in fact only one note different to the major scale - it has a b7 scale degree.

To help adolescents identify and express their emotions, she introduces song-writing activities. Though the therapist has a strong background in jazz and classical music, she notices that the clients criticize her accompaniments.

Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act (IDEA) Originally passed by Congress in 1975 and reauthorized several times, most recently in 2004... [Show More] , the IDEA specifies the procedures for insuring that all children with disabilities receives a free appropriate education in the least restrictive environment possible. It also includes requirements for parental involvement and due process procedures when parents or guardians disagree with a school's decision regarding their child. Individualized Education Program (IEP) The federal special education law (IDEA) requires that an IEP be developed by a team for each student receiving special education services. The IEP must contain a statement of the student's present levels of educational performance, annual goals related to areas of deficit, short-term objective describing the intermediate steps to the annual goals, criteria and procedures for determining the achievement of the objectives, and educational services to be provided to the student. Any changes to a student's IEP must be agreed upon by the entire IEP team. Changes cannot be made unilaterally by one individual. Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) A plan, similar to an IEP, by designed for young children (under 3 years of age) and their families. An IFSP is somewhat broader than an IEP in that it also specifies services and resource to be provided to the entire family in support of the child with disabilities. Least Restrictive Environment (LRE) A legal term from the IDEA that specifies that students with disabilities must be educated as close to the same environment as their typical (nondisabled) peers. It is this provision on which inclusion is based. Manifestation Determination A determination that a student's inappropriate behavior is not a result, or manifestation, of his or her disability. This is usually determined in a hearing and is required when a student's behavior violates school rules and before the school can undertake disciplinary action that might result in a student's suspension from school. Mnemonics The use of memory-enhancing strategies or cues to remember something. This might include such things as rhymes, visualization or acronyms. Nonverbal Learning Disabilities Refers to individuals who have a cluster of disabilities in social interaction, math, visual-spatial and tactual tasks. Peer Tutoring A method used to integrate students with disabilities into general education settings. It is based on research that demonstrates that students can effectively tutor one another. It maximizes active student engagement with an academic task and can also improve social and communication skills. One particularly effective form is Classwide Peer Tutoring (CWPT). Positive Behavioral Support (PBS) Using methods and techniques that support desirable and appropriate behavior rather than punishing undesirable or inappropriate behavior. It usually consists of determining what types of reinforcers would promote appropriate student behavior and then using those reinforcers to help the student engage in that behavior. Seizure A sudden alternation of consciousness, usually accompanied by motor activity and/or sensory phenomena, caused by an abnormal discharge of electrical energy in the brain. Spina Bifida A congenital midline defect resulting from failure of the bony spinal column to close completely during fetal development. It may occur anywhere from the head to the lower end of the spine. Because the spinal column is not closed, the spinal card can protrude, resulting in damage to the nerves and paralysis and/or lack of function or sensation below the site of the defect. Stereotypic Behaviors Any of a variety of repetitive behaviors that are sometimes found in individuals who are have autism, blindness, or who are severely mentally retarded. May include such things as rubbing eyes, hand flapping, swaying from side to side, etc. Supported Employment A method of integrating people with disabilities who cannot work independently into competitive employment. Includes the use of a job coach who helps the person with disabilities train for and succeed on the job. Systematic Instruction Teaching that involves instructional prompts, consequences, or reinforcement,for performance, and transfer of stimulus control. It is usually used with individuals with mental retardation. Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) An injury through the brain due to an accident (not conditions present at birth, birth trauma, or degenerative disease). Results in total or partial disability that affects educational performance. It may affect any or all areas of cognition, language, memory, attention, judgment, motor skills, behavior, emotions, problem solving, or speech. Because as the brain heals the symptoms will change over time TBI requires close communication among education, medical and other professionals, and parents/guardians. Individual Transition Plan (ITP) The IDEA requires that, no later than age 16 (or earlier if appropriate), each student's IEP should contain a statement of needed transition services. In addition, the ITP must include a statement of linkages and responsibilities for each appropriate agency for provide those services. The intent is to have a plan in place to facilitate the individual's successful transition from the school setting to the community. Job Coach A person who assists workers with disabilities to be successful in a job setting. A job coach provides vocational assessment, instruction, planning, interaction and communication assistance with employers, and other services to support the individual in a job. Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) The ADA is a civil rights law for persons with disabilities to protect them from discrimination in a wide range of activities, such as employment, transportation, public accommodations, and telecommunications. This is not the primary law that provides protection and safeguards educational rights of students in schools. That law is the IDEA. Carl D. Perkins Vocational and Technical Education Act Signed into law in 1998, this law provides federal funds for occupationally-relevant equipment, vocational curriculum materials, materials for learning labs, curriculum development or modification, staff development, career counseling and guidance activities, efforts for academic-vocational integration, supplemental services for special populations, hiring vocational staff, remedial classes, and expansion of tech prep programs. In special education its primary benefit is that it requires schools, and distributes funds, to provide vocational training, planning and placement for students with special needs. Applied Behavior Analysis An approach often used with children with autism, although it can be used for other purposes as well. It breaks a skill or task down into smaller units or steps. The teacher practices each step with the child, helping the child to connect the smaller steps with the larger task or skill. The teacher uses prompts and reinforcements to assist and encourage the child to correctly perform each step with the prompts and reinforcers gradually reduced until the skill is self-maintained by the child P.L. 99-457 Passed in 1986, this law (Education of the Handicapped Act Amendments) established early intervention for young children from birth to age three and their families. TEKS Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills, these is the state required curriculum for all public schools in Texas. The TEKS lists the skills students should have mastered at various grade levels in all academic subjects. The TEKS do not provide information about resources to teach the skills or how to evaluate them. It is simply a list of those skills. A teacher can tell, for children at any grade level, the prerequisite skills the students should already have mastered and which skills the students will need to master next. [Show Less]
