This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
There’s something great about curling up with a good book in winter; add music and a little “chicken soup”, and you have an amazing combination!
I love to share the song Chicken Soup with Rice, based on the book by Maurice Sendak, with my students, especially in January.
We usually have to share a few books from the local and school libraries or just read the words on the interactive board. This year, I want each student to have their own copy!
The pandemic has put an unfortunate delay on the reading skills of so many students. I love to incorporate reading in my music class and especially this year, I want to work to improve my students’ reading skills. Help me give the joy of reading with music to my scholars. We know that music + reading = fun!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
