d. Activity Description:
This activity requires the use of forward chaining and is done in a group setting.
First, one-three participants will pick an instrument to play. Then, they will be
given a song that they have heard before and can easily play along to while the
instrumental to the song is being played on a CD player. For example, if this was
done in a senior living facility, I would play an Elvis song whereas, for kids I might
play the Frozen soundtrack. Then, the rest of the participants who are not
playing the instruments would be asked to guess the name of the song. The
therapist would pick the song and work the CD player so he/she could tell the
musicians when to stop playing and prompt the audience to guess the tune. The
therapist would also prompt the group with clues to figure out the name of the
songs. Lastly, the player or players that guess the tune correctly will have their
names written on the whiteboard with a point next to it for every song they get
correct. At the end of the activity, the person with the most points, get a grand
prize.

Description of complete modified activity


For the modified activity, the therapist will play a song

instrumental on the CD player/ electronic device, and then ask the

group Is anyone knows the name of the song. The person, who
answers correctly, will receive a prize. This will go on until there
are no more songs left. If no one gets the answer the therapist will
give the answer and move on to the next song. He/she will also
provide clues so that residents have a better chance of figuring out
the answer.
f. One researched adaptation: One adaption that can be used for this activity is to
not use instruments for people who have Alzheimers. Participants who suffer
from this might have a hard time processing directions and/or having a hard time
playing instruments. In this case, I would most likely use the CD player to play
the instrumentals for certain songs and have the group members figure out what
the names of the songs are.
