Book Description
Rhythm, rhyme, and rap are powerful hooks that spark students' interests and engage them in learning. This innovative resource provides effective strategies for incorporating rhyme and rhythm-based activities and lessons into Language Arts, Social Studies, Science, and Math instruction. Through the use of music, singing, student- and teacher-created raps, Reader's Theater, Freeze Frames, and historical songs, students will develop their literacy skills, master content-specific knowledge, and be more likely to retain information while meeting standards goals.
