Elders Wisdom Children's Song Performance (EWCS) |
|
NEXT Tuesday, May 10th ~ 6:30 PM, Aquila Gymnasium
Fourth Grade Talent Development Classes and Elders:
- Mrs. Midi Hansen’s Class ~ Ms. Aria Jones (Elder)
- Mr. Matt Ikola’s Class ~ Ms. Susan Conlin (Elder)
- Mr. Bill Stenross' Class ~ Ms. Nadia Mohamed (Elder)
- Ms. Rachelle Williams’ Class ~ Mr. Jordan Zacarias (Elder)
EWCS incorporates the tools of community organizing, education and celebration through storytelling in song and spoken word. At the heart, is an educational process called collective songwriting. It combines the collection of oral history, or oral literature, with the teaching of songwriting and poetry. Inspired by the life story of the elder, a song or spoken word piece is written and performed by the class, for the community.
