Rationale

This is an excellent example of planning because lesson plans are built around planning. This demonstrates Accomplished Practice #10 in that the lessons being created all address specific musical interests and needs, are created in such a way that they flow from one activity to the next, and connect subject matter to the Sunshine State Standards in that they interweave different academic subjects into the lesson about music.
