Guess the Song Lyrics: Yellow Ledbetter, using Music to teach ELA

Use Music to teach English Language Arts. Students love the variety in all of these activities and they thrive when you give them the chance to select their own music for analysis. I created all of these resources to be used in an elective ELA class called "The Literature of Music." There is no pPrice $147.00Original Price $156.00Save $9.00
Description
Do you actually know what Pearl Jam is saying in their "Yellow Ledbetter" song? This is a super easy no-prep activity where you simply play the song (on any music stream) and give the students this handout where I have made fill-in-the-blanks for guessing.
After giving them a couple listens through the song, ask them to share what they think the words are--in full class or in small groups. Then you can read (or sing!) through the song as you say the correct lyrics (provided).
