Karaoke Activity

Procedure:

Assign each group of students a different section of the topic being studied and ask them to research the material and extract the most important and relevant concepts, facts, personages, etc. and to put those into a song using their creativity.

Make sure it is clear that the rhyming of the song and other song-writing details are secondary to having all the important concepts clear in the song.

After the students have written their songs, ask them to present it to the class (sing it) to the karaoke CD provided.

After they have sung the song, ask them to explain the lyrics to the class so that the entire class is clear on the concept.

If possible, type out the song and give each student in the class a copy.
