What should I know about Ella Fitzgerald?

Ella Fitzgerald, the "First Lady of Song," wasn't just a singer; she was a jazz legend who redefined music. Her effortless mastery of vocal techniques spanned genres with ease, earning her fourteen Grammys, including a Lifetime Achievement award! She could swing with Basie, scat with Dizzy Gillespie, and croon lullabies with tenderness. Her improvisational skills were legendary, her scat singing a whirlwind of syllables that danced around melodies with playful precision. Ella's impact was more than just technical brilliance. In a segregated America, she rose to international stardom, captivating audiences with her charm, warmth, and sheer musical prowess. Her artistry, a testament to both joy and resilience, became a beacon of hope for people around the world.

Students can select the weather symbols that come to mind. Is the music happy or sad? A set of emotional characters allows your group to pick the feelings that best relate to a piece of music.
• Listen & Color a Carnival - Students can color a carnival while listening to the selected music! Which carnival rides and activities would best fit a piece of music? Does the tempo feel like a roller coaster or a peaceful swing ride in the sky? Choose a tasty treat from the snack bar, then stop at the prize booth before finishing. There are no wrong answers!
• Emoji Checkbox Listening - This listening sheet style is all about checkboxes! Students note how they feel and what they imagine while listening to a selected piece of music. Choose from the musical instruments, nature scenes, colors, and more! Time, nature, settings, instruments, and colors are also listed. Students color in the emojis that best describe their listening experience in the emoji grid. The 'Inspiration Box' can be used for inspired drawing, journaling, notes, poetry, etc.

Need an awesome Art Unit? I have just the thing for you! This creative Jacob Lawrence Storefront Scene was designed to be printed and displayed as examples while you teach. Use this Google Slide file to display these beautiful images one-by-one on a large screen. It is best to use 18 x 24 white paper for this unit, since this will be a rather large artwork. This unit should last 4-(50 minute) class periods. I allowed the use of crayon for larger areas on the paper (like the sky, road, sidewalk, and buildings). I allowed the use of colored pencils for small, detailed areas. I hope you and your kiddos love this! Enjoy.

Canada Black History Month is celebrated annually in February to recognize and honor the contributions and achievements of African Canadians. During this month, there are various activities aimed at educating and inspiring children about the rich history of black Canadians.

For children, writing and reading activities are an engaging way to learn about this important history. Writing activities may include creative writing prompts, journaling, or letter writing to significant historical figures. Reading activities could include book clubs, where children can read books about famous black Canadians, or storytelling sessions where they can listen to stories of struggle, perseverance, and triumph.

These activities help children gain a deeper understanding of the history of black Canadians and encourage them to appreciate the diversity of Canadian society. By participating in Black History Month activities, children can develop a sense of pride in their heritage and gain a greater appreciation for the contributions of black Canadians to Canadian society.
