Assets for Teachers
Crossroads Blues Experience is currently developing supplemental online assets that teachers can use to build on the learning framework established during the live music/multimedia performance. These assets can help teachers initiate deep learning by reinforcing ideas and information from the program and encouraging students to ask questions and create their own stories.
What‘s the Story Behind This Picture?
This picture sparks a lot of curiosity during our performances and provides a wealth of learning moments to stimulate discussion and creative action. Teachers can start by asking students to create a story around this picture without knowing anything about it. They can then ask directed questions that help students discover the real story behind the image.
Are these men twins or is it the same person?
What‘s that thing behind the head of the man on the left?
What do our eyes see when things move very fast?
About The Images
All the images used in the Crossroads Blues Experience program were curated for historical significance and suitability as learning aids in the classroom. As we collect feedback from our audiences moving forward, we will be expanding the teaching materials available on our website.
