A truly inclusive instructional model anchors learning to something all students care about deeply, and where each brings relevant prior knowledge to bear. Join us to explore how an untapped resource – the hundreds of hourly our students have spent listening to music – can be leveraged to foster a cohesive classroom, and scaffold concepts in math and language arts in a way accessible to every student.

YouthBeat

Working with a YouthBeat facilitator, students work through ten tutorials covering ten key, foundational concepts behind creating memorable music covering everything from rhythm to chord changes and melody. These tutorials run alongside use of the YouthBeat app, allowing students to interact and play with what they’re learning – and they do play. Unlike other popular musical apps, using YouthBeat retains the physicality of playing an instrument even though it, too, runs on a tablet. By the end of the 10 sessions students have everything they need to start their own compositions.
