YGB ONLINE - Parent Homepage

We have an online platform with lyrics, Black history lessons, and videos that can help further students' knowledge of the pieces we are learning and of Black history in general. This platform is password protected and was created for the benefit of YGB students to use from home to practice materials. We ask that the password is not shared with anyone outside of our community.

Please encourage YGB students to rehearse 20-30 minutes a day on non-rehearsal days and to engage with the YGB Online platform outside of rehearsals.  If a member misses rehearsal for any reason, YGB Online is the resource to keep them caught up.

How to complete a YGB Online lesson:

  • YGB students should begin by reading the instructions on the KIDS Homepage (this has clear instructions for the kids to understand how to engage with the platform)

  • YGB students will receive YGB Notebooks that they should use to complete their lessons in

  • YGB lessons consist of lyrics, biographies, videos, questions, and vocabulary

  • Students should follow along with each lesson and answer the questions at the bottom using the information they learn

  • They should use a dictionary to look up the vocabulary words

  • Some songs have bonus lessons where the students can make a poem, flag, or play a matching game!

The password to YGB Online is on the Family Portal landing Page.

Students who complete YGB Online Lessons on their own time and show proof to staff will get extra snack!
