This is an in-depth research and oral presentation task that would suit students in grades 5-8. It requires students to choose a country and research the instruments and music of that country. Included are: ♦ A list of TIPS and IDEAS for the teacher. ♦ THREE task pages with six criteria areas for students to address. ♦ A marking sheet for assessment purposes. ♦ A table of suggested countries for research and a column to enter student names so you can keep track of the country each student is researching. ♦ A three page list of internet sites where students might find information.
