I was asked by Rosa Molina, Executive Director of ATDLE to present a workshop on children/s music.
Discussion on how culture and language is transmitted through music. Examples of songs with long histories from different points of history! Demonstrate/teach a song from different regions of the Spanish speaking world. The importance of vocabulary and the way to derive meaning from the song and how the musicality helps students enunciate and pronounce words at a native like level. Encourage teachers to teach a unit on Arroz con leche and other songs in Spanish within a cultural and historical context. |
