"no body, no crime" by Taylor Swift & HAIM

Stories are not only found in books, but in movies and TV series as well.
And, in music!
Before most people could read and write, music was often used to tell each other stories. Because stories that are set to music or with lines that rhyme (like poetry/songs) are easier for the storyteller to remember.

Nowadays, this story-telling-through-songs is still a thing. That's why you'll encounter several songs during this block, while you're learning about scary short stories.

 

You've just learned about short story structure. Let's see if you can find the structure in the song below.

Activity 3:

- Now give each part of the structure in the story a different color (with your highlighters/pens).
- Make sure to write which color marks which part of the story structure.
- Compare your answers to those of your classmates.
  Did you agree on the structure of the story-song?
