G. F. Handel: Article and Higher Order Questions for 5th/6th Grades

For ELA, general music, or social studies classes, this engaging 500 word article on Baroque great G.F. Handel comes with 6 higher order thinking questions that challenge students to:

-make text to self connections
-draw inferences
-analyze a text to determine author's purpose
-draw conclusions
-make predictions

This activity is unique in that I can be used effectively in a general music, ELA or social studies class. For music teachers, it can be used in conjunction with my articles on J.S. Bach and Domenico Scarlatti to supplement a unit on the Baroque era. Challenge your students to build the analytical skills they will need throughout their school day.
