Now that you have read something about the history of rock and roll, it is time to know some more. You are going to search the web and find information about the musicians and bands mentioned. Every student chooses one and writes a short paragraph that has to include: soloist or group name, nationality, instruments, kind of music, hits and any relevant information. After that, you are going to upload the information to a blog. You can use Wix, Blogger or any other sites your teacher recommends.
