The Roots of Hip Hop - Middle/High School Lesson Plan

In this lesson, students integrate information from varied sources to identify where Hip Hop first emerged and consider the cultural, historical, and social factors that influenced the birth of the significant artistic and cultural form.

This lesson was developed in collaboration between the NYCDOE and TeachRock. TeachRock improves students' lives by bringing the sound, stories, and science of music to all classrooms.
