English 10
Today we discussed the nature of viral content on the internet. We began work on our song project. Here are the big questions to think about as you prepare your presentation:

Questions:

  1. Why did this song become a hit?
  2. What audience is this song intended for?
    1. How do you know?
  3. What kind of behaviour does this song suggest?
  4. Identity some parts of the song that suggest more than a literal meaning.

Your presentation should be:
1. 1 - 2 minutes long.
2. Play the song, or a portion of it for the class. Keep it polite!
3. Answer the above questions during the presentation.
4. Hand in your extended response after you complete the presentation.

Here is the link for song sign-ups.

If you want to make a change to your song, please inform me by no later than tomorrow's class.

English 12AP
Today we went over the quiz. A lot of students felt this should be part of their English 12AP mark, so it shall be!

Read the first part of Heart of Darkness for tomorrow.

  2. Your extended response is your response to the 4 big questions above. You should address those questions in your presentation, but we wouldn't want you to read right off your page.

  3. How much is "some" for identifying the parts of the song?
