Wondering What Was In Last Month’s English Teacher Fun Box?

- A guided close reading of Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy).” This is a comprehensive lesson bundle that uses “A Bar Song,” one of 2024’s most celebrated songs, as a central text. Students will engage in close reading, guided rhetorical analysis, compare and contrast with poetry, synthesis with other pop songs, and even have the opportunity to develop their own arguments that achieve “lyrical dissonance” with the help of some AI tools. (This is SO good!)
- A guided close reading of Benson Boone’s “Beautiful Things.” Similarly, this lesson bundle utilizes “Beautiful Things” as a core text — another extremely popular song of 2024. The argument in “Beautiful Things” lends itself to a deeper and more complex analysis, too.
- President Biden’s 2021 Inaugural Lesson Bundle. This is a doozy of a bundle, spanning 27 pages of guided close reading and rhetorical analysis, and including opportunities to analyze Amanda Gorman’s work. This is a wonderful way to prep students for the inauguration later this month.
- President Trump’s 2017 Inaugural Lesson Bundle. This is another lovely bundle that asks students to analyze and synthesize President Trump’s 2017 inauguration and inaugural address with that of previous inaugurations. What better way to pave the way to a comprehensive analysis on January 20th?
- The Flip Book: Guided Analysis! The Flip Book is a lovely interactive exercise that offers students a structured environment for engaging in rhetorical analysis on their own. This resource can be easily printed, assembled, and used as a compelling homework assignment as students begin to analyze the January 20th inauguration (or any argument, for that matter) on their own.
- Guided close reading and analysis of MLK’s “I Have A Dream” speech. Students are asked to closely read Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” speech, while pausing to unpack key lines or to answer guiding questions along the way. This is a great way to give students an accessible means for digging into “I Have a Dream,” and for setting students up to dig even deeper into other similar texts!
