We listen to some examples, and learn how to play the 12 bar blues on percussion instruments (xylophones and boomwhackers). Then, students write their own blues lyrics and share them with the class if they wish! Usually, we sing our songs over the instrument accompaniment, but this year we will just read them or record them if the student wishes to do so!]]> 2021-02-05 20:08:47 UTC https://padlet.com/rmcgarry4/8kfycqas9d0ubc6p/wish/1170115022 rmcgarry4 https://padlet.com/rmcgarry4/8kfycqas9d0ubc6p/wish/1183313866 Thanks to Parent Mr. Myke Washington for sharing this comprehensive listing of web resources! ]]> 2021-02-09 16:59:25 UTC https://padlet.com/rmcgarry4/8kfycqas9d0ubc6p/wish/1183313866 https://padlet.com/rmcgarry4/8kfycqas9d0ubc6p/wish/1188097907 We read the book "The Case for Loving", which briefly explains the Loving vs. Virginia case. We discussed interracial marriage and how it was not that long ago that people of different skin color were unable to be married. I include my own experience being a product of an interracial marriage and my own interracial relationship with my fiancé. We also discussed how love impacts our life and what loves means in fifth grade terms.

Last week, students researched STEM contributors. This week, we are focusing on literature (writers, poets, and even directors in film). Students are learning names of Black humans they may never learn otherwise. At the end of the month, we are going to have a socratic seminar on who they believe was , or is, the most influential Black contributor. They will have to use facts to support their claim.
