Description
Bridge to Terabithia has a great song "Free to Be You and Me" that Jesse's teacher sings in class. This activity will lead students to analyze the meaning of this song and its lyrics, in the story for Jesse, and in the overall meaning of the novel's theme. Students will listen to the song, read and analyze the lyrics, then answer 6 questions to get them think deeper about the song and how it applies to Jesse's story.
To make your digital experience smooth, we include instructions (w/ screenshots!) of how to download and organize your resources in Google Drive and Microsoft OneDrive. We've added Google Forms versions of each activity that auto-corrects their responses using a suggested answer key (which you can adjust afterward or modify your answer key) and compiles grades into a spreadsheet with learners' names and class periods to make things easier for you to grade all in one place (some types of question aren't able to auto-grade, though, because of the short-answer format).
