In the Classroom
Inspired by Emily's use of the ukulele, students can build simple instruments from recycled materials and then play along with her videos. This engages students in hands-on creation, enhances their understanding of sound and music, and extends to environmental awareness. Have students pick a song from Emily's YouTube channel, write a short story or poem inspired by the song, and share it in class. Use Emily's videos for sing-along sessions. Students can learn the songs, discuss the lyrics, and explore themes. Use the videos during the day to offer brain breaks to your students.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
