Tunes Tuesday

It's time to link up with Sweet Rhyme & Pure Reason for Tunes Tuesday! I'm posting super early because I have to leave for work in the morning and didn't want to be late to the [linky] party.

I chose inferencing for my Tunes Tuesday Grammar Skill to contribute and used the lyrics to the Rascall Flatts song 'Skin' to illustrate the skill. The song is about a young girl who is diagnosed with leukaemia and faces attending the high school prom without any hair. The author of the song does a great job of showing instead of telling what is happening in the story, which makes it more emotional (in my opinion). I would recommend this activity for grades 5 to 8 students. You can download my Tunes Tuesday package HERE.

This is my first time sharing a PDF file on a blog, so please let me know if the link doesn't work!

Have a groovy Tuesday everybody!

Pre-Tunes Tuesday

Better late than never. I just signed up to contribute to Sweet Rhyme & Pure Reason's Tunes Tuesday Linky Party. It's not too late to contribute (The resources are being posted July 16th), so head on over to claim a song and a grammar skill to post! This Link-Up is a resource sharing collaboration using music and lyrics to teach a variety of grammar skills for literacy.
