Description:
Does your vision for your classroom include cultural affirmation for all students?
Are you looking to incorporate non-English materials in a pedagogically relevant way?
Are you searching for bilingual and ELL teaching strategies?
Many of us serve students with a first language other than English. As Kodaly teachers, we can use the Prepare, Present (Make-Conscious), Practice model to promote the language and cultural skills our students will need to be successful in our classrooms.
In this workshop, educators will sing, dance, play, and explore music literacy using Spanish-language folk music from throughout North and South America as well as explore through reflection what a culturally affirming Kodaly classroom for all can look like. Learn skills to teach language and music skills simultaneously.
This workshop will be a combination of classroom-tested folk-song activities and critical reflection for teachers.
Note: As per University of Michigan policy, masks will be required at all times regardless of vaccination status.
