Scotland
Scottish heritage through music and dance provides a fun and educational look at Scottish cultures as reflected in the Scottish heritage of folk songs and dance. Students discover how Scottish immigration influenced the culture, customs, and history of North America. Students participate throughout the program by singing along, learning about the Highland Bagpipes, Scottish dancing, and learning a 'wee bit' of Scottish Gaelic and Scottish dialect.
Ireland
Irish heritage through music and dance is an engaging way to encourage students to learn more about the history of North America ...and possibly their own heritage. Students experience the songs, the dance, the instruments, and some magical Irish legends. Of course, we encourage everyone to wear green, but it's not mandatory....it's just fun!
Brazil
