Abstract
Integrating musical composition and performance into core classroom study is essential to maximize student learning and develop both musical and literary talent. With little or no musical training, teachers and students can use music to respond to and analyze texts; to think critically about specific components of stories, poems, or content area informational texts; and to create original, powerful responses to classroom content.
