The story behind Ruth B's creation of these lyrics is included, as is activities that tap into your students' creative energy. The culminating Socratic seminar will have students discussing the lyrics in detail with their classmates through included open-ended questions that are sure to deepen your students' understanding of the song and foster their speaking and listening skills as well.
