MusicLand Theme Park
http://www.speedwayschools.com/jh/projects/ACronin/Music%20Land%20Theme%20Park%20-%20Handout.pdf
GRADE LEVEL: 5-8
Written By: Hazel Jobe

CONTENT:
In this WebQuest, students are given the challenge of researching, designing, and creating a music theme park

AESTHETICS:
This site has no frills, a very simple design, and few graphics.

ORGANIZATION:
Navigation to the resource links is straightforward. Students will have to use the back button to return to the activity page

REVIEW:
Have your students develop a sense of music history, an understanding of music's influence on society, and an appreciation for different musical styles by completing this online activity. Students research the different musical genres: musical theater, early, new jazz, rock and roll, country & folk, and pop music. Then they design a "land" for MusicLand around the theme. The activities are tied to California standards and include evaluation criteria and extension ideas.
