Bringing “Real Love” to Students
in Elementary and Middle Schools

The John Lennon Real Love Project songwriting program, led by teaching artists Beth and Scott Bierko, is provided to elementary and middle schools. 

After learning about John Lennon’s life, music and highest values of peace, love and equality in a dynamic 40-minute presentation, students write new lyrics to “Real Love.”  Next, they record a new version of the song accompanied by John Lennon’s original vocal and piano track. A video chronicling the experience is made and posted on the John Lennon Tribute YouTube channel on social media.   

The program is currently offered to grades 3rd through 8th.
