Folk Music in the English Classroom
Laurie Ornstein Zaarur

Since I began teaching nearly 30 years ago, I have been bringing my guitar and folk music into the English classroom to enrich my lessons. Being a folksinger and teacher has allowed me to teach my students many songs on different topics we've studied...friendship, travel, civil rights, peace and more.

This year I have, at the urging of others, taken my music around the country to different schools and done a number of successful programs. I teach the pupils songs on a theme discussed and agreed upon in advance along with prepared songsheets. A musical cloze can also be included. The songs, of course, are geared to the appropriate levels of the classes. To make the most of the time, I can work with a few groups/classes together and spend a full morning at any individual school.

I'd be happy top speak with anyone interested in such a music day and can also be reached at 08-6532080. Leave a mesage if I'm not in! I have no problem traveling the length and breadth of the country to bring music into your classroom.
