What educators are saying
My students are obsessed with this activity! I used it in pairs with my students and they are having so much fun writing their own songs!
Description
This assignment has students use their creativity, experience, and imagination to write their own basic song. They will learn about how a generic song is structured then use an easy-to-follow formula to come up with their own song. The assignment is broken into 3 different steps that can all be put together to complete a generic song that also rhymes!
Once the worksheet is completed, students and/or the teacher can sing through them using karaoke backtracks online or a live piano/guitar. It is so much fun to see what the students comes up with and is a great outlet for them to get creative with the power of music.
*Modern song examples that follow the generic song formula are included and color coded.
