Save the Orchestra!
This WebQuest was created to help students understand that all four instrument families, woodwinds, brass, strings, and percussion, play very important roles in the orchestra. Students will use a list of prescreened websites to research the four families and the instruments that belong in each family. They will review the characteristics of each instrument family and why instruments belong in each family. Students will listen to musical examples and describe which instruments/families are playing melody, accompaniment, etc. They will then create a PowerPoint presentation talking about the importance of each family and persuading the “people in charge of the orchestra” not to eliminate one of the instrument families from the orchestra.

THE FAMOUS MEDIEVAL FRESCO PAINTER: Giotto di Bondone (c. 1267 – January 8, 1337)
Giotto di Bondone (c. 1267 – January 8, 1337), better known simply as Giotto, was an Italian painter and architect from Florence in the late Middle Ages. He is generally considered the first in a line of great artists who contributed to the Italian Renaissance.
Giotto's contemporary Giovanni Villani wrote that Giotto was "the most sovereign master of painting in his time, who drew all his figures and their postures according to nature. And he was given a salary by the Comune of Florence in virtue of his talent and excellence."[1]
The later 16th century biographer Giorgio Vasari says of him "...He made a decisive break with the ...Byzantine style, and brought to life the great art of painting as we know it today, introducing the technique of drawing accurately from life, which had been neglected for more than two hundred years."[2]
Giotto's masterwork is the decoration of the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua, commonly called the Arena Chapel, completed around 1305. This fresco cycle depicts the life of the Virgin and the life of Christ. It is regarded as one of the supreme masterpieces of the Early Renaissance.[3] That Giotto painted the Arena Chapel and that he was chosen by the Comune of Florence in 1334 to design the new campanile (bell tower) of the Florence Cathedral are among the few certainties of his biography. Almost every other aspect of it is subject to controversy: his birthdate, his birthplace, his appearance, his apprenticeship, the order in which he created his works, whether or not he painted the famous frescoes at Assisi, and where he was eventually buried after his death.

GREEK CORINTHIAN BLACK-FIGURED POTTERY EXPLORED
The black-figure pottery
(Greek, 'μελανόμορφα,melanomorpha) technique is a style of ancient Greek pottery painting in which the decoration appears as black silhouettes on a red background. Originating in Corinth during the early 7th century BC, it was introduced into Attica about a generation later. Other notable black-figure potteries existed at Sparta, Athens, and in eastern Greece. The technique flourished until being practically replaced by the more advanced red-figure pottery technique in 530 BC, although later examples do exist.
Keywords:black-figure pottery, Corinth, kiln, engraving tool, oxidization, vessel, sintered painted layer, glossy black colour.
