ASSIGNMENT 4/10/20 FOR 705, 706, and 707

Hello 705, 706, and 707!!

**Here is Today's assignment for all Students!**


Objective:  Family members of all generations share the music that was passed down to them from relatives and members of the community, then have a family sing-along.

1.       First, watch these videos and reflect on how music is passed down from one generation to the next:

2.       Next, each member of the family identifies 3-5 songs they love that were introduced/passed down to them from a relative or member of the community.

Spend some time to individually make a list of your songs and to jot down who introduced each song to you, when and where they introduced it, and any special memories you associate with each song.

3.       Collect each family member’s song list, and create one family playlist on Spotify or YouTube that includes all of the special songs.

Use the links below if you need help!

4.       Sit in a circle and, when it is your turn, introduce one of your songs by sharing your memory of how you came to know the song (When?  Where?  From whom?  With whom?), what you think of when you hear it, and why it is so special to you.  Then, listen together! 

Continue around the circle, one song at a time, until all songs on the playlist have been introduced.

5.       As a family, vote on your top THREE songs.
For each, search for a YouTube video that includes the lyrics.  Have a family sing-along!

Extension 1:  If there is a dance that goes along with one or more of your songs, teach the steps to your whole family, and dance together!

Extension 2:  What songs today must be passed down to the next generation?  Discuss as a family.

Extension 3:  Explore Carnegie Hall’s Lullaby Project and consider how lullabies pave the way for families to pass music down from one generation to the next:
