Student Project
Songs are heard on
the radio, on television, everywhere.
The words or lyrics are often poetry of a
special kind.
They may be rhymed or unrhymed, serious or amusing,
and often,
written to inform about social conditions,
personal situations or emotions.
WHAT
You will
:
...analyze or
look closely at the lyrics of a song of your choice.
...complete
the worksheet, and submit it to your teacher on/before the deadline.
...present
the song to the class.
LANGUAGE NOTES
Native
speakers often make grammatical errors, but are unaware of them. DON'T is regularly used instead of DOESN'T
This can
occur for one or both of the following reasons:
Þ
poor education
Þ
regional variation
Some songs
contain slang that not even native speakers know.

HOW
 -Team up with
a classmate or work alone.
-Choose a
song you like.
-Find a copy
of the lyrics online. Try www.lyricsondemand.com or other sites.
-Read the
lyrics first and try to understand them. You don’t have to translate the
lyrics word by word, just try to find out what the song is all about.
-Look up the
meaning of words or phrases in a dictionary. Pick some words or phrases from
the song that you would like to learn.
-Complete the
worksheet
-Get your
chosen song in a pendrive, CD or let your teacher know which song you have
chosen.
-Bring the
lyrics with you, and present the song to the class and all you have learned
about it.
