PRESCHOOL – 3RD GRADE
Take your students on an active and playful educational journey and get up close and personal with the world of pop and rock. We’ll listen to the coolest music, do fun dances, and quiz our way through pop and rock music. On a tour of the entire Rock Museum, students will gain insight into the significance of music and its various forms of expression, as well as how pop and rock music have influenced children and young people both in the past and today. With a playful approach, we’ll cover topics such as music history, dance, fan culture, and music production, and we’ll touch on how music can also be used to advocate for a cause.
GRADE LEVEL: 4th–6th
Are you ready to step onto the stage like true rap stars? Ready, set, RAP! is a creative educational program where students work with rap, rhymes, rhythm, and community in collaboration with rapper and facilitator M.C. Caffe. The program combines Danish, music, and elements of visual arts, and through group exercises and creative activities, students’ confidence in using language is strengthened in a safe and motivating encounter with hip-hop culture and rap.
GRADE LEVEL: 4th–7th
In this course, students are introduced to the music producer’s musical cockpit. We open the door to the technical world of the mixing console, where everyone can learn to create music. We explore digital possibilities in the home studio and professional technical dreams, and together we hunt for the coolest, most unique sound in our exhibition. In “The Hunt for the Cool Sound,” you’ll join us on a journey through the history of sound recording. During the course, students will work on music production themselves, creating and recording sounds and trying their hand at mixing their own track.
We approach music production as an artistic process, embracing creative inventions and wild ideas, and together we’ll try to find just the right hook.
GRADE LEVEL: 4th–7th
In this program, we focus on fan culture, DIY, a passion for music, and idol worship, and we explore how to creatively express one’s “fandom.” Students will explore idol worship based on their own idols and use the museum’s exhibition to gather inspiration. During the program, students will have the opportunity to express for themselves what fans and idols mean to them. In connection with the program at the museum, the class can continue exploring fan culture, idols, idol worship, fan art, and fan fiction.
GRADE LEVELS: 6–9
In the educational program "Crazy About the Beatles," we explore how The Beatles left their mark on young people in Denmark and the rest of the Western world. We meet the pop group’s fans, who screamed themselves hoarse at concerts, and we examine how entirely new ways of being a fan were created. We will engage in dilemma-based learning through a series of questions rooted in fan culture and idol worship, drawing from the exhibition "Birthe and the Beatles" and offering perspectives on idol worship and digital literacy on social media.
GRADE LEVEL: 8–10
You will work on image analysis, poetry analysis, news criteria, and the creation of album covers, storyboards, press releases, interviews, Facebook pages, advertisements, and more. Students will have the opportunity to develop skills in IT and media in relation to their own roles as critical investigators, analytical recipients, focused and creative producers, and responsible participants.
GRADE LEVELS: 7th–10th grade and secondary education
Explore the Rock Museum through the exhibition’s nine themes on the evolution of youth culture from the 1950s onward. Students will learn how young people throughout history have used rock and pop music to speak out, resist, escape to other times and places, become part of communities, and explore new aspects of themselves.
GRADE LEVELS: 7th–10th grade + secondary education
This is a workshop-based program in which MC Caffe will teach students to rap using tools from the Danish language curriculum. Students will become familiar with the structure of rap—rhymes, imagery, and flow. They will learn to write their own rap lyrics and will perform them together at the end of the program.
