Riverkeeper reflections

New Aquatics & Acoustics collection of songs focuses on environmental education opportunities

With five years of original Songs of the Susquehanna submissions accumulating and a growing need to engage young people with improving statewide standards in environmental literacy in the public school system, the Middle Susquehanna Riverkeeper Association pulled some of the more educational based submissions into a new collection called Aquatics & Acoustics. 

This project is currently available with a full-color booklet with lyrics for each song and some talking points for students on the song itself and how to tie it into the bigger environmental discussion. it also includes all songs on a USB thumb drive.

"The goal isn't just to provide songs that provide another creative portal for students to engage with our natural world, but also to hopefully get them connecting with music and the arts, as well," said Middle Susquehanna Riverkeeper John Zaktansky. "We'd love to see this new initiative lead to students developing their own creative pieces - whether that is in the form of songs or poems or other pieces of art - reflecting how they see the natural world and helping spread the excitement and learning to their peers."
The collection includes songs that are fun, that describe certain creatures and opportunities that can be found outdoors, but also introduce certain concepts, such as barriers to migration, reducing waste and protecting fragile environments such as vernal pools.

Cost is $20, which includes postage.
