Remembrance Day Activity Songs of change

Learning Goals I can listen to a text and analyse the main message using clues from the text. I can analyse literary elements and I understand how they help with the communication of the main message I can research and select appropriate information to help me answer questions. I can use titles, subtitles and symbols to organize my thinking and communicate effectively. I can connect texts to historical events and to current events. I can understand the purpose of the author of a text and how it relates to specific time, events and place.

Mission #1 Work as a group to recreate the song Using the computers and the headphones, put the lyrics of the song together and glue them to your board. Read the lyrics as a group and determine what the main message of the song is. Write it down on your board.

Mission #2 Decide who is doing what. Roles are as follows : 1. Artist 2. Poet 3. Journalist 4. Wonderer 5. Connector 6. Media expert

Roles in more detail Artist You are in charge of making this board visually appealing and engaging Titles, subtitles, symbols, drawings etc. Poetry Analyst Analyse the language features of your song; metaphors, rhymes etc.) Explain why the author used certain words or phrases

Roles (Continued) Journalist Research the context when the song was written Why did the author write this song? What are some of the key events that happened at the time? Where is the band/author from? How might that information be useful? Wonderer Ask and research 3 questions that you wonder about your song. Use the computer to confirm, verify your predictions in answering those questions.

Roles (Continued) Connector Make connections to texts, self and current events. How is this still relevant even after all the years it was written? Media Expert Review the media triangle and make sure your board covers the audience, text features and purpose section. Review your board as a whole and make sure that visual elements help the reader understand your poster.

You have the next 2 periods to complete your work. Go!
