Objective:  I can contrast the mood and tone of Anita with the mood and tone of Maria in “A Boy Like That/I Have a Love” by applying the definitions of each to words used in the lyrics and consulting with my elbow partner.

BW:  As you listen to the song, determine the argument between Anita and Maria.

Activities:

  1.  Think Pair/Share:  Answer the worksheet questions through #8.
  2. Groups of 3 or 4:  Decide on Anita’s mood by finding three of her words that make you feel something.  Decide on the tone of the author, his attitude about Anita’s argument, by using three words.  Repeat for Maria.
  3. Share Out:  What is each song’s tone and mood? Why?  What words helped you decide?
  4. SSR:  Add inferences to your triple-entry log.
