3. WRITE A REFLECTION on the song. When writing the reflection, use the following questions to guide you:
In your own words, describe what thoughts or feelings the song created for
you?
Why do you think the song was written? What was the composer trying to
communicate?
What can you tell from the song about the culture in which the song was
written?
What questions does the song raise in your mind?
