Ms. Belknap's Class Writes a Song

As a part of an effort to make music class more interdisciplinary, a number of classes composed material based on content learned in other subject areas.
Ms. Belknap's 3rd Grade studied Vermont's Abenaki Native American tribe, and wrote a song based on the Abenaki folk tale about the Racoon and the Waterfall. They call this one "Abenaki Stories". We made a recording of this song which uses voice, xylophones, and various percussion instruments. All of Ms. Belknap's students were involved in making this recording.
