Multicultural Music: Israel

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Do a grapevine to the left, lift your hands in the air, and sing out, "Hey!" These are the steps second graders will do when they sing and dance the Israeli folk song, "Achshav.”  They will explore the concept of multicultural music and dance as they learn a song from the middle east.
