STORYTIME Activity Sheet WEEK 6 This week we are reading: Senorita Mariposa by Ben Gundersheimer ACTIVITY In this book the main character is the Monarch Butterfly. The author uses song lyrics to move the story along. Did you know you can find music all over the state of Tennessee? Let the music of Tennessee inspire you to create your very own song book. You can use materials from around your house. In your book you can write your own songs! ARTIFACTS: This week our story has a musical theme! These artifacts highlight the different types of music found in the Three Grand Divisions of Tennessee. From West Tennessee there is “The Memphis Blues” written by W.C. Handy. He is known as the Father of the Blues. The Fisk Jubilee Singers are a group of talented young men and women who perform around the world. They attended Fisk University here in Nashville, Tennessee. Dolly Parton comes from the hills of East Tennessee. She is probably one of the most well-known music artists from Tennessee. If you have a chance, create a Tennessee playlist and have a dance party with your family! West Tennessee W.C.
