THE APPLICATION OF ETHNOMUSICOLOGY TO THE ELEMENTARY CLASSROOM GUIDE
Brett Shiel

Return

This curriculum unit explores the uses of ethnomusicology in the elementary classroom. More specifically, the unit guides the teacher through a process of helping students learn about their own ethnic identity while gaining appreciation and value for other cultures and ethnicities through music. The unit culminates in a museum in which students present what they've learned and perform in a concert. The teacher does not need prior knowledge or formal skills in music, just interest!
