This Producing Beats lesson plan also includes:

Turn your classroom into a music studio as groups work together to determine why music sounds different when performed live versus a recording. After listening to some different music, each group picks a poem, creates a recording, and turns these into a song using a sound-mixing program. When complete, learners perform their creation live and play their recorded version for the class.
