What educators are saying

We played Green Day music (clean versions) and completed the quiz as a warmup. It was a fun aspect of our unit on developing voice in writing. The kids enjoyed it. Each week, they looked forward to seeing what version I would be offering of these fun resources.

Rated 5 out of 5

This was a good idea; I wish I had thought of it first! Although some of my students did not know who Green Day was, They still had a great time figuring out if a punk band or Walt Whitman said the phrases. I love it

Description

Who wrote it: rockers Green Day or poet Walt Whitman? Your students will have so much fun trying to decide whether the quote is from a Whitman poem or lyrics from a Green Day song! You can use the interactive bulletin board display OR the student handout and presentation as an anticipatory set to ignite excitement and appreciation for poetry.

The zipped bundle includes a 46-page PDF for the interactive bulletin board (45 quote cards + one heading page), a paper-saver bulletin board option with all 45 quote cards, a 2-page PDF student handout (45-question "quiz"), a 2-page teacher answer key, and a 134-slide presentation (updated to include an editable PowerPoint presentation as well as the PDF). The presentation and the interactive bulletin board both include the answers with details about the poem or song that is quoted.

As a bonus, the handout includes a brief bio about both authors. It's a great way for your students to have a POSITIVE attitude about poetry. It also helps them see that the lines of poems are very much like song lyrics, which helps students to understand the meaning.
