We have made it easy for 3rd grade learners using our Student Empowerment Program awareness themes and readiness-to-learn method to have fun and take on a “work ethic” and degrees of personal responsibility for their own learning in this lesson. We have based our learning object on poetry that sounds like rap. We did this to introduce a 3rd grade poet named, TyVion Harris. His poetry is very positive about schooling and is free verse in rap, an idiom that has held the attention of young people for nearly 30 years all across the globe.
