- Provide a description of the event and an explanation for your choice of music.
- Give proper credit to the artist or musician in a format approved by your teacher.
Share your playlist and explanations, then compare and contrast the relevant events and music choices of your peers alongside your selection. What patterns do you notice?
Teaching Suggestion: One way to create this project would be to assign a specific format for presentation, such as a word document or slide deck. Students can easily link their musical selections into the format, then share it with the class.
