Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kids love to move--and it's proven that children learn academic concepts better when those concepts are combined with music and movement. So Debby Mitchell created a book and DVD package that includes video clips that combine learning with music and movement. The DVD also includes reproducible assessments, lyrics, and posters that can be used in the classroom to facilitate learning. Learning Through Movement and Music: Exercise Your Smarts gets upper-elementary and middle school students moving while teaching them about their bodies, health and fitness concepts, and assessment of their fitness abilities. The book and DVD include * background information and song lyrics for each activity; * video clips that introduce each of the 14 activities; * lyrics to use as handouts; * posters for many of the concepts that can be used in the classroom; and * activity assessments (including questions and answers, flow charts, word searches, and crossword puzzles) and teacher answer keys. The DVD contains posters that reinforce the health and fitness concepts as well as the song lyrics and assessments, which you can reproduce. You can distribute the song lyrics to your students, helping them to learn the concepts. The activities are a great blend of movement and academic concepts and are suited for use in both PE classes and regular classrooms. The activities themselves cover warming up, stretching, muscle identification and workouts, cardio and interval training, fitness testing, the FITT principle, and cooling down. Learning Through Movement and Music enlightens students on the benefits, guidelines, and reasons for exercise and fitness in the environment in which they most love to learn: one where they are moving and having fun!

Book Synopsis When Music Migrates by : Jon Stratton
Download or read book When Music Migrates written by Jon Stratton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Music Migrates uses rich material to examine the ways that music has crossed racial faultlines that have developed in the post-Second World War era as a consequence of the movement of previously colonized peoples to the countries that colonized them. This development, which can be thought of in terms of diaspora, can also be thought of as postmodern in that it reverses the modern flow which took colonizers, and sometimes settlers, from European countries to other places in the world. Stratton explores the concept of ’song careers’, referring to how a song is picked up and then transformed by being revisioned by different artists and in different cultural contexts. The idea of the song career extends the descriptive term ’cover’ in order to examine the transformations a song undergoes from artist to artist and cultural context to cultural context. Stratton focuses on the British faultline between the post-war African-Caribbean settlers and the white Britons. Central to the book is the question of identity. For example, how African-Caribbean people have constructed their identity in Britain can be considered through an examination of when ’Police on My Back’ was written and how it has been revisioned by Lethal Bizzle in its most recent iteration. At the same time, this song, written by the Guyanese migrant Eddy Grant for his mixed-race group The Equals, crossed the racial faultline when it was picked up by the punk-rock group, The Clash. Conversely, ’Johnny Reggae’, originally a pop-ska track written about a skinhead by Jonathan King and performed by a group of studio artists whom King named The Piglets, was revisioned by a Jamaican studio group called The Roosevelt Singers. After this, the character of Johnny Reggae takes on a life of his own and appears in tracks by Jamaican toasters as a Rastafarian. Johnny’s identity is, then, totally transformed. It is this migration of music that will appeal not only to those studying popular music, but

Book Synopsis Boogiemania - 88 keys to the soul by : Nico Brina
Download or read book Boogiemania - 88 keys to the soul written by Nico Brina and published by tredition. This book was released on 2024-01-11 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In over 4,000 performances in 19 countries to date, the award-winning Swiss boogie and blues pianist Nico Brina has experienced the magic of improvised music, how it affects people and what it triggers in their souls. Music as a world language. Already in his German-language book "Von 100 auf 0 in 1 Sekunde" (From 100 to 0 in 1 second), published in 2022, he talked humorously and up close about his career and about unusual projects that enabled him to keep the flame alive even during the coronavirus pandemic. Just in time for his 40th stage anniversary, a direct continuation of this successful author's journey is now being published, and this time also in an English translation: "Boogiemania - 88 keys to the soul" Nico Brina takes a deeper look into his life, telling funny and sometimes even totally crazy anecdotes from his multifaceted career. A thrilling book that in personal, direct language provides valuable insights into the nature of uncompromising dedication on stage. Brina repeatedly succeeds in creating a philosophical link between the art of improvising on 88 keys and normal life. In this way, he draws highly inspiring images that give people the courage and strength to engage with the moment and surrender to the so-called "flow". In doing so, he perhaps even provides something of an explanation for the timeless secret of boogie and blues magic.

Download or read book The Islander written by Chris Blackwell and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2023-02-07 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the vein of Sound Man and The Soundtrack of My Life, a lyrical memoir from the founder of one of the greatest music labels of all time, Island Records, about his astonishing life and career helping to bring reggae music to the world stage and working with Bob Marley, U2, Grace Jones, Cat Stevens, and many other icons. Since its founding in 1959, Island Records has been home to legendary artists representing wildly divergent musical styles, yet who share the same maverick, outsider spirit of its founder, Chris Blackwell. Time and again, Blackwell and his Island cohorts identified and nurtured musicians overlooked by other labels, including Bob Marley, U2, Cat Stevens, Grace Jones, Roxy Music, Traffic, Nick Drake, Tom Waits, Robert Palmer, Free, the B-52’s, John Martyn, and Jimmy Cliff. Like these artists, Blackwell never took the conventional route. After a privileged early childhood in Jamaica—crossing paths with Ian Fleming, Noël Coward, and Errol Flynn—he was expelled from the elite British school Harrow for rebellious behavior at age seventeen. Within five years, he had moved back to Jamaica, and founded Island. Intertwined with the story of Island is that of Bob Marley and the Wailers. After an impromptu meeting with the band in 1972, Blackwell produced the groundbreaking album Catch a Fire, formed a deep bond of mutual trust and friendship with Marley, and became known for helping to bring reggae music to the world stage. He also opened the first Jamaican boutique hotel, on the property of Ian Fleming’s former home, GoldenEye, where all the James Bond books were written. This engaging memoir from one of the great raconteurs of the late 20th century makes for a giddy ride through some of that era’s most cutting-edge, enduring music. As Bono says, Blackwell “is an adventurer, an entrepreneur, a buccaneer, a visionary, and a gentleman.”

But Raven was always special. She was beautiful and filled with life; sometimes, she would even feel her mothers spirit watching over her, keeping her safe. As Raven grows into a young woman in the inner city of Toledo, Ohio, she eventually meets the man of her dreams, Calvin. As she soon finds out, though, you cant always tell a good apple from a bad one just by looking at its skin.

Somewhere, Raven must discover her inner beauty again, hidden beneath the bruises. She must find the will to go on living, despite a broken heart. It is the strength of her core that will keep her alive and dreaming. The good apple that had some bad luck can still be sweet with a little hope, love, and faith.
