Canadian Country Countdown

Our unit introduces students to the world of country and western music. The students will have an opportunity to write, act, dance and draw their way into this entertaining style of music. The first section is quite structured as students learn about Canadian country music and artists. “Extra” assignments can be easily incorporated during this part. The remaining assignments are more open-ended and designed to build a degree of flexibility. Student assignments include song analysis, image association and line dance. Our innovative approach, with a refreshingly Canadian emphasis, is sure to make students give a big “Yahoo!!!” This Music lesson provides a teacher and student section with a variety of reading passages, activities, crossword, word search and answer key to create a well-rounded lesson plan.
