“Analyze a Song and Rewrite the Lyrics”
Students will analyze and discuss the lyrics of a song relevant to the theme of Accomplishing Goals and Overcoming Obstacles, then rewrite them with Christopher’s goal of taking the A level as the specific focus.
Christopher is at one of his lowest points when it seems that he has lost his chance to take the A level exam in mathematics. Even when he can take the exams, his troubles are not over because he is anxious and exhausted.
