Adalia Boehne

Write a Song With Me

Curriculum: Music

This is not your typical music class! Like Ms. Frizzle and the Magic School Bus, students will get up-close and hands-on with music creation. This fast-paced, high-energy session explores diverse instruments, music, and experiences. Students will ask questions like “How does the sound of rain make us feel cozy?” and “How can we turn jangling keys into a dance rhythm?” When there are fewer boundaries around creativity and kids are allowed to share the song inside them, songs about little brothers, hanging with friends and sunny days emerge. Without noticing, kids have a blast as they write poetry, basic rhythm, and instrumentation. All programs are created with grade level in mind and customized for ages/grades present. Specialized programs are available. Presenter Ms. Powell/ Adalia Powell-Boehne is a Trauma-Informed-Practice Teaching Artist through the Bartol Foundation. She has years of musical experience and is a current songwriter/performer in the band KNOTTS. With a passion for sound, song, and music exploration, she engages creativity in a way that kids enjoy.
