Baltimore City teacher Gena Proctor and Music Educator Murray Piper developed these resources to help students make deep connections between Ned from Code Talker and how he was impacted by WWII. Students will explore body percussion and visual art, learn about fluency and the connection to musical rhythms, and complete a simulation that puts them in Ned’s shoes as a code talker.

Through every resource and activity created by Baltimore City teacher Cheyenne Shongo and school-based Art teacher Sienna Mahoney, students find ways to use descriptive language and sensory language details, creating exploded moments, scripts, comic strips, and an illuminated manuscript.

Inspired by the Wit & Wisdom grade 7, "Language and Power," the creative trio of Diamond Gray, Noelle Tolbert, and Gena Proctor introduce arts-integrated activities to support students' background knowledge and understanding of the Russian Revolution. These practices will aid students as they read and reflect on George Orwell's Animal Farm.
