Alden Phelps – Preposterous Parodies Professional Development

**Available virtually and in-person**

Why Parody? We love to create parodies! Students that aren’t inspired by fractions, Maryland history, or earth science will come alive when they can use their knowledge creatively. How Can I Use Parody Songwriting in the Classroom? Parody songwriting is best used to help students retain knowledge that they’ve recently learned. It’s a great project to use at the end of a unit: the students will review all the information as they write. Songwriting is an exercise in collaboration. Students learn to share, collaborate, compromise, and offer useful critique.
