Write a post on your blog answering the following questions to help you plan for our first project. Write in complete sentences in paragraph form. Your blog posts will be graded for completeness, thoughtfulness, and writing style.
- What do you think is the main reason for playing songs during passing periods (for example: motivation, distraction, entertainment)?
- Do you think the songs currently being used achieve this purpose?
- Knowing that people will never agree 100% on music choices, how do you feel about playing songs from different genres (such as country, hip hop, rock, pop) during passing periods?
- If you could create the playlist, what are at least 3 school-appropriate songs that you would choose? (Bonus question: What 1 song do you think would be good to use as a 1-minute warning?)
- How would these songs achieve the purpose for playing songs instead of using bells?
- What do you think it will be like next year at the high school, going back to just bells at the beginning and ending of each class?
