Think- Puzzle- Explore
You have two nights to complete this homework. You can…. and perhaps should…. collaborate with Mom or Dad to complete the assignment. Your task is to identify a song that highlights the importance of a particular place to the singer, such as the example of Green River and it’s importance to John Fogerty’s childhood. Our unit is on physical geography so please do your best to find a natural place, not a manmade one.
Once you have identified your song with your mom or dad’s help you will need to post a THINK-PUZZLE-EXPLORE. Be sure to try and find a music video of your song (if one exists) and listen to it. Think- What experiences do you think the singer is sharing? What do you think the significance of the song is? Puzzle- What questions or what puzzles you about this song? Does the song reference anything you want to know more about? Explore- How might you explore the puzzles you have around this topic? Your parents may support you throughout the entire exercise. Perhaps the song you end up picking has a connection to them, if so please share this as well. Please use the comment section to post and then be prepared to introduce your song and comment with the class on Friday.
Listen- Think- Wonder
Either tonight or tomorrow night i’d like you to listen to the following video. After you have finished listening, please write down some of the highlights that have stuck with you. Next record what you think about those highlights? What do you think they mean? Finally record any wonderings you have about the song, record any thoughts you have about the song. Please do this in the comment section of this post.
It’s the lyrics you should be paying attention to, not the scenery. Remember I’ve asked you to Listen- Think- Wonder….
Some of you also have some JUMP maths you need to finish for tomorrow. Ms. Ashley would like everyone to finish their learner profile sentences for tomorrow as well.
