Adding Music to Oklahoma History

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

To better understand Oklahoma state history, learners will use a website to find a song that supports or represents aspects of Oklahoma's history. They'll write three sentences defending their choice, and then they will create single-scene tableaus with their music selection playing in the background. A very multi-sensory way to study history.
