The grade 2 curriculum centers around the community, and folksongs stem from communities – and can be very indicative of the area from which they come from in the language used, the stories told and the instruments played upon. The songs I use for examples are also written in the ABA form, which we also discuss. Student learn how folk songs are created, taught a very basic ABA form (which comes up later on in successive grades), rhyming, a topic to write about, and possibly collaborate with others to compose their own piece.
