This week along with practicing the standard curriculum subjects, Room 9 has been celebrating the birth of Hip hop by having a go on the Google Doodle 44th anniversary of hip hop. This fun activity allows you to try out a set of turn tables, mixing the samples that started the genre of Hip hop. They cover everything from the original sample Kool Herc used, all the way through to the Armen break, the most sampled piece of music in the history of music. This was great chance for my students to explore one of their favourite types of music. See if your kids have what it takes to become a scratch master like Kool Herc or Grand Master Flash.
