About Me

Hello my name is Jarrod Craig. I teach 5th Grade and I'm excited that you landed on this blog. The intention of this blog is to expand your student's writing based on music. Most times, I can be found in my classroom playing the guitar and singing for the students, sparking their ideas for creative writing. Hope you enjoy your time here.

Thank You.

Friday April 20, 2012 Song Observation

I hope you enjoyed your experience of writing with music. Now you will have the opportunity to listen to one of my favorite songs again. As you may remember, I have played this song for you in class on my guitar. I would like for you to listen to the acoustic guitar and notice how the words, also known as lyrics, and the guitar seem to fit together like a puzzle.

Pearl Jam- Yellow Ledbetter


Now that you have listened to the song please take some time to write over these topics.

1) What do you feel is the mood of this song? Was it Happy? Was it Sad? Was it Angry?
2) How did this song make you feel?
3) What part of the song was your favorite? The instruments or the lyrics?
