¡CANTEN, AMIGOS!  
 
    By Jill Gallina and Frances Rinehart
In this beautifully diverse world we live in it is essential as educators that we expose our students to the wealth of musical treasures from many different cultures. Music teachers, classroom teachers and world language teachers alike will find this collection to be a wonderful resource. ¡Canten, Amigos! is a unique compilation of eight Hispanic songs designed with detailed lesson plans to introduce your students to the rich musical heritage of the Hispanic people. Each lesson plan contains a history of the song, a literal translation of the Spanish vocabulary, as well as detailed instructions for teaching the song to your students. The collection also includes an extensive history of Hispanic music and provides useful basic guidelines for teaching the songs contained within. The songs have been arranged in two parts for use in classroom or concert settings, but can easily be adapted for unison singing, as well, by having students sing just the melody line. The songs contain both Spanish and English lyrics with the Spanish enunciation provided for each selection. Shawnee Press

A SOMBRERO FOR SANTA  
 
    Jill & Michael Gallina
What a wonderful way to teach Spanish, music and the transportation unit at the same time! This charming musical play for elementary students takes Santa and the elves to Mexico to vacation and to learn Spanish. While there, they also learn the North Pole is snowbound, so they begin examining all the methods of Mexican transportation for their return—only to find a problem with each. Finally, they decide to set up the toy workshop there until Rudolph gets through with the sleigh. This delightful story—told in rhyme—features 21 Spanish words and six unison/2-part songs. Staging and costume guides along with a pronunciation glossary are included in the Director's Score. The A/P CD features Latin percussion instruments and Mariachi brass. The inter-curricular possibilities are endless... so will be the applause! Shawnee Press
