Lesson Plan for “What's Your Name?” Attention Teachers!!!
Looking for new lesson plans to engage your students in
learning about themselves?
Wishing you had innovative ways to teach your students to
appreciate others?
The Institute for Cultural Partnerships announces the publication
of What’s Your Name?
an exciting new study guide with an accompanying recording
of 22 traditional dance tunes, songs and instrumentals from
11 ethnic communities throughout Pennsylvania.
But don’t be fooled. This is not only a study guide
for music teachers. The 15 innovative lesson plans can also
be used to teach Language Arts, Communications, Physics, Spanish,
Journalism, Geography and Social Studies. What’s Your
Name? includes a Student Fieldwork Guide to encourage
oral history and folk life collecting in the community and
useful tips for teachers interested in identifying and inviting
traditional artists into the classroom to work directly with
students. The lesson plans are packed with activities (65
in all) that are coded by ethnic community, curricular area
and grade level for easy reference. A Glossary of Key Words
and a Pronunciation Key make this study guide accessible and
easy to use.
Each lesson plan includes a Teacher’s Page with
background information about the music and the culture
of the performers, definitions of key terms used, at least
three activities for use in the classroom, suggested assessment
tools and strategies, follow-up activities for further
learning, additional resources and Student’s Page
that can be copied and distributed.
Selected topics include:
- Our Home Town
- Interaction Between Cultures
