The 5th grade classes just finished up a unit about guitar design. (Which they loved!) They studied the difference between electric and acoustic guitars and we listened to a variety of music styles that incorporated the guitar. We even had one of our members from tech department perform with his Fender!
The students had to create a guitar design for someone who does one job by day but really would like to be a rock star! I created a list of occupations (artist, football player, chef, archaeologist, etc) and the student chose one job to focus their designs on.
Cool use of standards and art projects sometimes with the older students it is hard to pull in the arts.
