Hamilton Education Program - great opportunity!

Did you hear about this??  If you are musically inclined, or really bummed about the musical being cancelled this year, you should definitely think about doing this... looks fun!


Here are the details:
The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History and HAMILTON are thrilled to announce EduHam at Home, a free digital program for students and their families. 

Families can explore the world of HAMILTON and America’s founding era together and students are invited to create and perform their own narrative in the form of a song, rap, spoken word, or scene.
Students are invited to submit their creation and selected student performances will be shared globally through the HAMILTON app, social media (#HamAtHome), and the Gilder Lehrman Institute’s website.

This free program is open to K-12 students and their families (and will be of particular interest to students in grades 6-12). Learn more and register here.
 


Upon registering, participants can explore, learn from, and enjoy a wealth of materials including:
  • Exclusive video clips from HAMILTON performed by the cast 
  • Interviews with Lin-Manuel Miranda, original cast members including Daveed Diggs and Phillipa Soo, and Ron Chernow
  • A wide selection of primary sources centered on a diverse group of 45 people, 14 events, and 24 key documents from the era
  • Expert advice on creating outstanding performance pieces
  • Highlights from EduHam student performers
