RaP - Rhythm and Poetry

RAP (a.k.a MC'ing or spitting) which first began in the late 1960's stands for Rhythm And Poetry. Rap is a fast paced form of lyrics spoken rhythmically over musical instruments, or with a musical backdrop of sampling, scratching and mixing by DJ's. This workshop will help you to twist and shape your words into the right rhythmical fit as you develop your word power by carefully choosing the right words and broadening your vocabulary.

Project suitable for:
ks2 (8 - 11), ks3 (11 - 14), ks4 (14 - 16), teenage, young adult
