Summary: |
This is an exciting collection of vibrantly illustrated poetry about music--classical, jazz, gospel, blues, opera, marching band. Backnotes extend learning about music, artists, and key works. |
Teaching Ideas: |
Students could select poems to rehearse for performance, either individually or in readers' theatre format.
These poems employ rich music vocabulary for semantic mapping and study of imagery and figurative language. Learners might like to compare the music (information about the musicians can be found in the end matter) with the poems related to the music. The relationship of the vibrant illustrations to the rich text should elicit lively oral and written responses. |
