Just off the press: Lorenz presents “What's Shakin', Shakespeare?†the third installment in the “Smarty Pants†series by Mark Burrows.
“Yo, Leonardo,†the first offering in the series, explores the visual arts through songs and activities about famous artists. The next resource, “Go, Galileo,†is a musical celebration of science and invention.
This newest publication, “What's Shakin', Shakespeare?†pays tribute to well-known authors and poets and builds excitement about reading and writing through memorable songs and creative extension projects.
All three books have reproducible student pages and come with a CD featuring listening and accompaniment tracks—everything you need for a performance or a full collaborative unit with other teachers in your school.
