Lesson Spotlight Scottish Instrumental Music

I’m going through one of my favorite 4th grade music lesson plans step by step and giving you the lesson plan to download and access to the lesson for remote learners!!! Yep, you get it all - one stop shop - except it’s FREE. The Scottish Highland Bagpipe is a part of this lesson, but so are other instruments such as the Celtic drum (Bodhran), fiddle, accordion, and the voice! This lesson reinforces elements of time signature, how rhythms and sounds send signals, dance, and history.

#57 Celebrate Black Culture
Diverse Learning in Schools
I don’t know exactly what to say about Black Lives Matter. I want to have the "right" thing to say, but I don’t know what that is. I am not black and so I don’t know what it feels like to be black. But I still feel deeply about treating everyone equally and celebrating the beauty in all people regardless of the color of their skin. What is do know and believe is that an educator's response to this should be out of love and respect.
