Lemonade in Winter: A Book About Two Kids Counting Money is a children’s book about math; however, when sharing it in the music classroom, street cries and clapping games emerge. Jenkins’ and Karas’ book provides a springboard to lessons addressing several music elements, including form, tempo, and rhythm, as well as cultural connections. Related general music activities for students in Grade 3 and older are described.
