Lesson plan

1. Recap and recall

This activity revisits learning from Lesson 1: How do lyrics communicate a message? to help the children recall key knowledge. 

Explain that the children will work with a partner to recall and expand on key facts from the last lesson. Show the Presentation: Tell me more. Tell the children to look at the picture and the word bank. Allow time for a paired discussion. Encourage the children to explain the message of the song 'Hall of Fame' or discuss the techniques in the lyrics (the words of a song) that convey it.
