Holiday Song Project (English II classes)

With the holidays around the corner, here is a chance to boost your grade:

1. You will select a holiday song in class.  (No repeats)
2. You will present the following information on a Powerpoint or Prezi:
     A. The history of the song (include who wrote the original song, when it was first recorded, who first sang it, how many times it has been remade)
     B. What is the meaning of the song?  Explain the deeper meaning not just the literal meaning.
     C. Does the song have any literary devices? (example: repetition, simile, metaphor, imagery, etc.)
3. Your presentation must include the lyrics of the song as well as pictures that go along with the song.

Remember to have fun, but do a good job!

You can begin your presentations on Monday, December 14th.  All presentations must be done by December 18th.
No presentations will be accepted after the break.

Worth 10 points x 2
