Your Favorite Song as a Form of Expression in Google Classroom

Your Favorite Song as a Form of Expression

HELLOOOOO Everyone! This week I want you to reflect on either your favorite song as of right now, or a song that you recently find yourself listening to frequently. As we've been discussing, music is a form of emotion and often we choose to listen to songs that either reflect or show how we feel, or songs that can help us feel a certain way. For example, a song that I have been listening to is Toosie Slide by Drake. I listen to this song because it cheers me up, brings a smile to my face and makes me want to dance to it. The lyrics even give you the dance moves to do by stating "Right foot up, left foot slide". I often listen to this song when I need a pick me, or need to get moving for sitting too long. This song often makes me feel immediately happier after. I now want you to reflect on a song that you have been listening to or is your favorite song as of right now and answer the assignment question below.
