Change Sings
I love Amanda Gorman's poetry and couldn't wait to get this book. I've written a little song to go with it and added some Orff instruments.

It would also be great with ukuleles - only needed the chords F and C. I usually teach the song first, read the book with the song (I usually sing as I turn each page), then teach the instrument parts and put them toge
