Poetry & Music Project NAME: _____________________________
Due Wednesday, May 7th
SHOW ME THAT YOU HAVE LEARNED HOW TO RECOGNIZE
POETIC DEVICES!
Objective: You will identify poetic devices in
songs of your own choosing & share with the class in a presentation.
✔You will “teach” the class how you identified each device
in one or more songs. You may include the music to the song, BUT you must
not go over EIGHT MINUTES. At eight minutes your presentation will end,
and you will only be graded on the first eight minutes. Therefore, you
may have to “splice” your song (just use a portion of it). You do NOT
need the music to use those lyrics in your presentation (it’s optional).
✔You will provide a copy of the lyrics to Ms. O’Donnell at
least a day BEFORE your presentation
(24 hours in advance!).
✔Your lyrics MUST be school appropriate. Absolutely
no derogatory, racist, sexist, vulgar, profane, or just plain insulting lyrics
are allowed. You have been warned. You WILL receive a zero.
✔You must credit your sources on the final page by giving
the web address of the lyrics & the writers of the lyrics (who are not
necessarily the artists performing). If you include the music, you must
cite the artist & album & copyright year
✔You must include a MINIMUM of FIVE poetic
devices.
✔You may earn extra credit if you find more than five
poetic devices.
✔You will be graded on the following criteria:
25 points Minimum of five CORRECT
identifications of poetic devices
20 points Presentation’s Visual
Appeal
10 points Citations of Sources on
Final Page
10 points Providing the lyrics to Ms.
O’Donnell at least 24 hours in advance
-If you CHANGE your lyrics without giving them to Ms. O’Donnell, you will NOT
get these points.
25 points Clear Presentation &
Explanation of Each Device
10 points Listening to Classmates (Silent/not
disruptive during classmates’
presentations!)
Total: 100 Points
