Reading With A Rapper Visits Teague Middle School

Disponible en: Español


 Teague Middle School English Language Arts students received a special visit from Reading with A Rapper (RWAR) and artist AJ McQueen on Friday, October 22.

Aldine ISD was the first school district in the country to use the Reading With A Rapper (RWAR) eight-week after-school program in middle schools across the district. The program designed to strengthen literacy skills through rap lyrics and provide additional support for students has now grown to serve students in Houston and Atlanta. RWAR was created to relate English Language Arts (ELA) metrics and academics with socially conscious lyrics, video content, and technology. The program content is engaging and helps uplift students socially and academically, to ensure that they have the skills necessary to thrive in secondary and collegiate level courses.
