Activity

Choose a song you already know and love.

Now, take the tune and rhythm, but write your own words to create a brand-new song.

Think about using:

  • Repetition — repeating certain lines or phrases to make your song catchy and powerful.
  • Choruses — a special part that repeats throughout the song and holds your main message.

Have fun playing with the words and making the song truly yours.
