Here are 3 songs that are related to the Alberta Social Studies curriculum, particularly for grades 9 and 12. Included are the lyrics for the songs My Prime Minister, Like Democracy, and Here Now (Canadian Identity Song). Beneath each of the pdf files of the lyrics is a recording of the song itself. My Prime Minister and Here Now (Canadian Identity) songs are in wma (wave file) format, and Like Democracy is in mp3. My Prime Minister and Like Democracy can also be viewed on my YouTube channel, the Art Koop channel.

The other tabs under ‘Educational’ contain additional materials, most of which are related to the songs or use the song composition or video creation as exemplars for student reference if/when students choose to create their own similar projects. Also included under those tabs are assessment rubrics for reference for marking/understanding a standard for such projects.
