Songwriting Class: JAMM@Riverbend and Glacier Valley After-School Clubs
|
"Songwriting: TJ Cramer, a 2nd grade teacher at Riverbend, inspired songwriting at JAMM's after-school programs at Riverbend Elementary School. The videos below are the culmination of studentsʼ writing to recording process. Students start with poems, listen to instrumentals, and count beats. Then they play with form and instrumentation before recording.
|
Recording: Joshua Laboca from Second2NoneSound professionally recorded all of the the students' songwriting projects. JAMM hopes to develop a recording studio at its two Title 1 schools to help students learn the songwriting process from start to finish and develop both their creative and technology skills in a meaningful way.

Mr. T (Tyree Pini) has been sharing his Songwriting process with our Glacier Valley Sítʼ Eetí Shaanáx̱ students. The class created a melody line together and then wrote their own lyrics around the theme of "Resilience." Here are some creative tools from Mr. T that students can use to continue writing their own songs and manipulating the GV Resilience Chorus.
