Getting a Handle on Handel

Second graders learn about composers all year long.  After learning about George Frideric Handel, students created "graphic" organizers that told things that they had learned.  We posted all of these on a bulletin board titled Getting a Handle on Handel.  Look closely at the pictures of Handel and you'll see some of the facts that students wrote down.  Why the bright colors?  Handel was a creative guy and we wanted to show how creative we were by choosing unusual colors for our projects!
