Hip Hop Hope: Unlocking English Language Learning with Rhythms and Rhymes

Author: Rebecca Horner

Seminar: Music and Healing in Philadelphia

Welcome! If you are reading this unit, a keyword or curiosity drew you here. You are interested in learning something new, and you are open to trying out some lessons created by a fellow knowledge-seeker. Maybe you were drawn to the title because you love music, especially Hip Hop. Perhaps you teach English as an additional language, or maybe you know how important rhyme-awareness is for creating phonological awareness, and you know that rhythm and rhyming go hand in hand. Regardless of your reason for choosing this unit, I promise you an engaging journey into the brain and the science behind using music as a teaching tool, especially for teaching English.
