# ReadBox Project Songbird

Listening to music is a favourite pastime for many people and is a part of popular culture around the world. Pop song lyrics are both meaningful and motivating authentic material, so why not use them for our ReadBox project ?! By listening to music and reading the lyrics, you will be getting used to the English language’s flow, intonation and rhythm and you will be learning and practicing your thinking skills all the same time.

It turns out that a lot of these songs actually have stories behind them. A lot of these great songs come from interesting personal experiences and are stories from the artists who write them. So the songs you listen to are really just stories or poems and you could say that songwriters are authors. We would like you to dig up those lyrics that you can identify with; do they relate to your own experiences and values ?! Songs that work best are almost normally those that produce some sort of response to the music. So choose a song with a good story line or a song which requires you to actually work out what it is about.
