Music Video

In my arts class we had the opportunity to create a music video that we would be able to connect to another subject; we could choose pretty much anything from math, science, language arts, or social studies. The tough part for my group was deciding on what kind of video to make; we just could not decide which subject we should choose there were just too many choices!

We finally decided on the topic of dance. Michelle, my partner, has been in ballet for a really long time so she has a connection to it. My connection is mainly the fact that I like to watch people dance, I don’t really have enough coordination to dance as gracefully as other people. J

Doing something like this in a classroom could be fun. No matter their tastes in music almost everyone has a connection to music. So, teaching through music or learning through music can be extremely beneficial.

You could either have students create their own music videos about a specific topic or you could create a video that you would use to teach the students about a specific topic. Either way using this musical aspect in a lesson gives the students at least a small connection to it.
