"Drum Up a Song" is a literacy based music program that gives students a chance to turn a favorite book into a song, turn a favorite song into a poem and create a song of their own. Using drums and percussion, the students will put a Dr. Seuss book to rhythm and take a familiar children's song and read aloud as poetry. We then collaboratively write an original song with a positive message and set it to a rhythm that everyone plays and sings. The teaching artist will be reading/leading musically. .
