Meaningful Songs

5/11/2017

 
This week, we started to look at different songs in class to see if we could read into them to find the author’s meaning from the lyrics.  It was neat, trying to prove an author’s message, and only having their words to guide us.  Songs are amazing in this way; the author may have a specific meaning but songs also mean something to you.  This week for you blog post, I want you to find a song that you like, a song that has a special meaning to you, and I’d like you to post a link to the lyric version of that song (youtube), and then talk about what the song means.  

​In a paragraph I’d like you to do three things:
  1. Talk about the author’s message and why you think that
  2. Explain why the song has a special meaning to you and what that meaning is
  3. Jot down the lines in the song that you find the most powerful and why

Growth Mindset - A Poem!

5/4/2017

 
This video is titled growth mindset in math.  I want you to listen closely to the words of the song, How do they explain growth mindset?  Does this connect with your thought on what growth mindset is?  We have spent a lot of time talking about Growth Mindset and mistakes in math this year.  For your blog post this week, you have a poetry challenge!  Can you write song lyrics or a poem about what you think growth mindset is?  Your poem does not have to rhyme but most definitely can.   The joy of poetry is that there is no wrong way to write a poem.  Teach the world about growth mindset through your wonderful, creative poems!
Good Luck!
