Rock and Roll Curriculum
April 3, 2008
The truest wisdom is a resolute determination.

"Children’s voices filled the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’s main floor, where cars from U2’s Zoo TV tour and Phish’s giant hot dog dangle overhead. The 3-, 4-, and 5-year-olds were there to take part in the Toddler Rock program. While the museum devotes a lot of attention to honoring legendary artists, the Toddler Rock program helps fulfill an education necessity, reports Joe Milicia for the Associated Press. The program provides inner-city children with lessons in music and literacy in an environment that they otherwise wouldn't experience. Letter recognition, rhyming, and alliteration are crucial to developing reading skills and thusly comprise important parts of the program. Many of the participants live in housing projects and share stories with instructors about the violence they have seen. The hope is to give children a reference for something better as they have already witnessed more than anyone should."
