    more JAZZ CHANTS: RE J Acknowledgments | would like to express my thanks to Margot Gramer, my editor at Oxford University Press, for her dedication and support. T wotld also like to express particular thanks to Matt Kaplowitz, who served as arranger and musical director for the casette recording, and to Dick Hyman, Milt Hinton, and Ron Traxler for their inspired performance. New York City 1985 What Is a Jazz Chant? {A jazz chant isthe shythmie expression of standard AL English as it occurs in a situational context, ‘The jazz chants included in Small Taik end on its accompanying cassete are designed asa language tool to develop students’ appreciation of the rhythm and intonation patterns of spoken American English Just as the selection ofa particular tempo and beat in jazz may convey powerful and varied emotions, the rhythm, stress, and intonation patterns ofthe spoken language ure essential elements for the expression of the felings and intent of the speaker. Linking these two dynamic forms has produced an innovative and exciting approach to language lea s, students are also learning to distinguish asts while they are actively an easily be used in their own In performing the ct difficult vowel and consonant cont engaged in a verbal exchenge th lives, The Sounds of American English ————_— $e ‘American English stretches, shortens, blends, and often drops sounds, ‘These subtle fearures of the language are extremely difficult for a student to comprehend unless his ear has been properly trained to understand the language of ani educated native Speaker in natural conversation. The sound of “Jeet yet?” is meaningless unless one has acquired the listening comprehension skills necessary to make the connection with “Did you eat yet?” ‘Another example of the blending of sounds is I’m going 10 (go), reduced to I'm gonna (go). Students should be aware that the ‘written word gomia would be considered nonstandard English ‘whereas the spoken form is perfectly acceptable in American A comparison of the text of Small Tall and its easette helps to iilustrate this striking difference between the written word and its spoken form, Jazz chants are particularly useful in developing these listening comprehension si Organization of Small Talk ‘Small Talk is arranged by functions, oF “purposes” for using language, Each unit begins with a number of jazz chants related to ‘given function, for example, Greatings. Within the group of chants there often isa progression from a formal to less formal way of expressing the function. The text is accompanied by a assete of the chants to provide a means of self-study. Ar asterisk at the end ofthe tite of a chant indicates that itis repeated on the ‘Small Talk cassette Following the chants are pronuaciation and listening exercises related to the functional topic of the chapter. Once the class has practiced and performed the chants, they can receive additional reinforcement through these exercises, [An answer key in the back of the book allows students to work at their own pace or individually. So, roo, all ofthe listening enercises have been recorded on a Separate cassette fr that purpose. Presenting the Chants ——————_— Jazz chants are based on a combination of repetition and learned response, The essential element in presenting a chant is to ‘maintain a clear, steady beat and rhythm. Initially, the students should repeat the fines following a model provided by the teacher andior the cassette Once the students are familiar with the material, they should progress from a simple choral repetition of a phrase to giving a froup response in answer 0 a question or statement. This {introduces an important new element as the class is nos in e dialogue with the teacher. This dialogue may then be transformed into @ three or four-part exchange. Many of the chants lend themselves to role playing, which enables the students to move from the formal structure of the chants to an informal classroom improvisation, using what they have learned in 4 situational context, These improvisations give the students not only the opportunity o speak individually but to make choices of attitude in their responses. During the role playing, itis important to make sure that the students retain the rhythm and intonation patterns established earlier. General Suggestions for Presenting the Chants — STEP1 STEP? STEP 3 STEP 4 STEPS STEP 6 STEPT STEP 8 STEP 9 Explain the functionel context of the chant, using ether the students’ native language or very simple English. You should clearly explain any vocabulary items or expressions which might present difficulties, and may wish to discuss the cultural {plications of the materia Have the students listen to the first presentation of the chant on. the cassette or as read by you, Have the students repeat any dificult sounds or particularly new or dificult structures lave the students repeat each line of the chant after you. tis important to establish a clear, strong beat by counting, clapping, using shythm sticks, or snapping your fingers, Have the students listen again to the solo presentation of the chant, Divide the class ito two (or three) groups, each taking a roe in the dialogue of the chant, Have each group repeat their lines after Hive the students respond to you, taking one of the roles in the dialogue of the chant, without hearing you model it first Divide the class agein and have them perform the chant without your model. You now serve as a conductor, keeping a solid, anifying beat while bringing in the two sections atthe correct Have the class continue 19 work with the chant by using three oF four-part exchanges, pair work, and role playing.
