After the Kahoot game, the teacher will pass out the lyric sheets to the students. Have students listen to Grandfather River and annotate at least three sections of the lyrics. The teacher can change these directions to specific lines or may leave it broad. After listening to the song one or two times the students, should pair up and talk about the song. This is where they should quickly go over the part they annotated and explain to the other student their thought process. The teacher should than hold a class discussion to answer any questions about the song and to engage the class in discussion. It would also be a good idea to ask the students to explain their thought process about their annotations. After the discussion the teacher will hand out the worksheet DBQ to the students. After some time, the students should go into pairs and work together and go over their answers.
