Fifth Grade Music Composer Reviews

The Fifth Grade Music classes have been learning about composers and the music that they write. The students were asked to create an iTunes-like review of  a composer and a specific piece of music that they wrote. Students researched the composer, learned about reviews and what made a good review and also how to create the review in Microsoft Word. Student's were given the opportunity to create a fake album cover art by learning about different tools in Powerpoint and then saving their art as a jpg. The finished product integrated music, art, and technology!

Here is one example:
