Unleashing the Power of Music Across Subject Areas | Cultivating Learning

Looking for ways to integrate music in your classroom? Join Logan Clark and Jen Mellizo of Smithsonian Folkways Recordings to explore Music Pathways, an innovative new teaching tool that illuminates lesser-known corners of music history using the sounds and resources available in the label’s iconic catalog. Together, we will explore the newest Music Pathway, “Listen What I Gotta Say: Women in the Blues,” and learn how to customize these resources to meet academic standards in engaging ways. Whether you teach music, social studies, language arts, or anything in between, you will leave with resources and practical strategies that will help you unleash the power of music in your own classroom.
