FREE WRITE Remember…. Don’t worry! Keep your pen and pencil moving for the whole five minutes.

BRAINSTORM For the next five minutes, look through your journal and underline anything that you are proud of or anything that you think you might want to use in your final song. Ready… set… GO!

Let’s review! Parts of a song: A song must have a title, verses, a chorus and a hook. Some songs have a bridge.

Let’s review! Title and hook: In most songs, the title appears at least once in the chorus. The title is often the hook, the catchy phrase that makes the song easy to remember.

Let’s review! Theme and message: The theme is the song’s main subject. The message is what the song communicates about the theme. Rhythm and syllables: Each line of the verse should have about the same number of syllables.

Let’s review! Rhyme: Most songs follow a rhyme scheme. Rhymes can be exact or approximate. Sensory details and images: Lyrics paint mental pictures to communicate their theme and convey emotions.

Songwriters draw inspiration from many different sources, including other songs and songwriters. But..… If professional songwriters steal all or part of someone else’s song and sell it as their own work, this is called plagiarism, and it is illegal. It is never OK to use a song or part of a song written by someone else and claim it as your own work!

HOMEWORK If your song is not finished, you should complete it tonight. If you have finished your chorus and verses, you can try writing extra verses for homework. Or, you could try writing another song!
