What’s Inside We Got Jazz!
We Got Jazz! explores the lives and careers of five famous jazz artists:
- Dizzy Gillespie
- Nat King Cole
- Ella Fitzgerald
- Miles Davis
- Duke Ellington
But the book does more than simply offer a biography of each person. We Got Jazz! encourages kids to get to know each artist’s music through review questions, copywork, and musical analysis.
Using We Got Jazz! as a Jazz Unit Study Workbook
Each jazz unit study in We Got Jazz! focuses on a different artist. After reading the biography, kids can answer the review questions, complete a crossword puzzle, practice copywork from each artist’s work, and complete a listening activity.
Since the activities involve reading, writing, music, art, and copywork, you can incorporate several of your school subjects into each unit study!
