We are on the road sharing our TeachRock curriculum through professional development workshops that will happen at every stop of the 201819 tour. Our arts integration curriculum uses the lens of music to help children learn all subjects, with innovative lesson plans developed by experienced educators and top experts in the field. From social studies and language arts to geography, media studies, science, general music, and more: TeachRock has engaging and meaningful material for every classroom that we share with teachers and students at no cost.
IT'S SIMPLE!

Get your ticket and rock!
The curriculum (and the ticket to the show) are free to teachers. The Rock and Roll Forever Foundation never charges for our lesson plans, and we won't be asking for donations. We just want to share our engaging curriculum with you the educators who will bring it to life. We have a limited number of tickets for each show so sign up today!
Thank you, teachers, for everything that you do. We look forward to seeing you soon!
