In Grade 5 we have been integrating with their current unit of inquiry “Migration”.

We have learned about “Musical Migrants”, these are people that migrated because of music, and we have connected this idea to the unit’s central idea, discussing how music represented risks, challenges and opportunities for them.

For the podcasts, visit the BBC’s website, where you can find the podcasts we listened to plus other episodes of the same series.

Here you can find the documents for Grade 5s to complete as homework.

Come back in a few weeks to see how the Grade 5s create their own podcasts after interviewing musical migrants during their visit to Qatar Music Academy Arab Music Department.
