Hamilton the Musical Projects for Teens
With today’s music lesson, I’d like to encourage the teens to use one of the videos below to learn to apply something from Hamilton the Musical. Learn to sing, play, act, or dance one of the songs or scenes. Learn something about the music theory of the musical. Or, even learn to sign one of the songs with sign language! I think you’ll love the variety of the Hamilton the Musical projects for teens I curated here.
If you have elementary students, head over to see the 15-Minute Music Lesson on Hamilton the Musical here.
High schoolers might also want to check out the Music in Our Homeschool membership where there is a full 30-minute masterclass on Hamilton the Musical!
**Warning: If you are new to Hamilton, be aware that there is profanity in the soundtrack (but you can hear “clean” versions on YouTube), in the stage musical, and in the Disney Plus movie version (although in this version the F-words have been removed).
