Answer:

The Anacrusis

Step-by-step explanation:

The Anacrusis (incomplete measure at the beginning of a melody) does not have a Measure Number. It is part of the final measure (the incomplete measure at the end of the melody). Conducting is an important "tool" to help students feel the Pulse and the Beat.
