4th Grade New Jersey Rap Projects!

Each spring, our 4th Grade classes work cooperatively to compose a rap or song about the state of New Jersey, in coordination with our 4th Grade Social Studies curriculum. Students collaborate to write lyrics and a rhythm for their rap and choose an accompaniment style to go with their composition. Click on the links below to hear mp3 files of each class' recording for 2010.
